JAKARTA - The Indonesian Cooperative Council (Dekopin) and a number of parties have pushed for the Indosurya Cipta Savings and Loan Cooperative (KSP) case to be resolved peacefully. Dekopin hopes that the KSP Indosurya can openly reveal evidence that can convince members or customers to undergo peace.

"The matter of peace is fine, good. But a reasonable peace, there is a guarantee, give hope to the members," said Deputy Chairman of Dekopin, Raliansen Saragih, in his statement, Tuesday, July 77.

Dekopin's statement responded to the intention of the KSP Indosurya board to submit a peace proposal with its members. He hopes that the assets owned by Indosurya can solve the current problems.

He continued, referring to the constitution, the role and contribution of cooperatives, must obtain the widest possible support and protection.

In line with Raliansen, Criminal Law Expert at the Islamic University of Indonesia (UII) Prof. Mudzakir argued that the peace efforts made by the managers and founders of KSP Indosurya Cipta through a peace proposal were considered as a good solution.

"If the name is a civil case it always begins with peace. It is normal in general, as long as it is done professionally, it means that the subject matter must be clear," he said.

However, he reminded, the public interest must be prioritized. In this case, there needs to be a certainty of commitment from the cooperative to continue to provide what is the right of members or customers.

"The essence is a win-win solution. Members or customers still get their assets or money back fairly," he added.

Meanwhile, with regard to the bankruptcy option, according to him, if it was taken it would be detrimental to customers. The reason is, what is returned to customers will certainly not be the same as before.

"Because what is called bankruptcy is definitely a loss, but there is something that will be returned," he explained.

Meanwhile, the Suroto Cooperative Observer is of the opinion that public trust in the savings and loan cooperative system must be encouraged. According to him, the future of cooperatives is still very bright if the government is not discriminatory and continues to encourage cooperatives to move forward.

Suroto explained that most cooperatives that disappointed him were those that were developed for money games, ponzi, and deliberately set up to cheat. As in the case of the Pandawa Cooperative and the Langit Biru Cooperative, the image of the cooperative has become tarnished.

He emphasized that cooperatives as self-regulate organizations must have good governance. Meanwhile, the government cannot discriminate against cooperatives.

For the Good of Creditors

The Indosurya Cipta Savings and Loan Cooperative (KSP) paved the way for peace by submitting a proposal based on suggestions and input from creditors in overcoming banking problems.

Attorney for KSP Indosurya, Hendra Widjaya in Jakarta, Tuesday, said his client was optimizing the peace proposal in solving the problem for the good of creditors.

"We are still accepting input and input from creditors so that the peace proposal will increase and be accepted by creditors," said Hendra.

Hendra said that the plan to discuss the peace proposal should have been discussed with customers on Monday, July 6, but the meeting was canceled because the KSP Indosurya was still revising the proposal to get the best results for both parties.

"This is for the good of all parties and we will convey it on Wednesday, July 8," said Hendra, adding that KSP Indosurya has revised the peace proposal based on input from customers.

Hendra hopes that KSP Indosurya finds an agreement with the creditors so that peace can be realized immediately and the problem will not be prolonged.
