JAKARTA - Deputy Director of Public Virtue, Anita Wahid, assesses that the public is not affected by the Taliban issue that was raised by 57 employees of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) who did not pass the National Insight Test (TWK).
This was conveyed by her in response to the demonstration carried out by the All-Indonesian Student Executive Board Alliance (BEM SI) at the KPK Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta today or Monday, September 27.
"Today's strong public support for 57 KPK employees proves that the people are not influenced by the fabricated slander of Talibanism", said the daughter of the late 4th President of the Republic of Indonesia Abdurrachman Wahid or Gus Dur in a written statement received by VOI, Monday, September 27.
He said the issue had been raised to attack the credibility and integrity of the employees who had been brave and honest.
"The issue of Taliban aims to undermine popular support by scaring people who are afraid of the issue of terrorism", said Anita.
For this reason, President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) was asked to act and take firm steps. The reason is that if this kind of stigma is allowed it will interfere with the eradication of corruption and make the quality of democracy in Indonesia decline.
The reason is that this kind of Taliban issue may be used by corrupt political elites to weaken the eradication of corruption.

In line with Anita Wahid, Public Virtue researcher, Mohamd Hikari Ersada, asked President Jokowi to listen to public voices urging the dismissal of 57 employees by the end of September. Moreover, the findings of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia and the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) should be sufficient as a basis for the former Governor of DKI Jakarta to act.
"In three days, KPK employees will be completely dismissed unethically, violating the governance of government administration, and violating human rights. The Komnas HAM and Ombudsman findings on the results of the TWK are the basis for the President to cancel the dismissal of 57 KPK employees. It's in the public interest", he said.
He also said that the pressure from civil society and the BEM SI Alliance should be a people's lawsuit that the President should grant. After all, the cancellation of this stop is considered important for the community.
"The President must immediately cancel the dismissal of 57 KPK employees. In the public interest. Moreover, the latest KPK Law places the President as the KPK's superior. So the President has the authority to cancel the decision to dismiss 57 KPK employees", he concluded.
