Viral Mode Driver Tax Officer, Minister Of Finance Sri Mulyani: Injured Public Trust

JAKARTA - Minister of Finance (Menkeu) Sri Mulyani Indrawati assessed the activities of state officials, especially employees of the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) who likes to drive motorbikes, causing degradation of public trust. Sri Mulyani said that Sri Mulyani was furious to see videos and photos of the Director General of Taxes of the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) Suryo Utomo and a number of employees of the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) riding a big motorbike or big motorbike (moge) viral in social media (medsos). He said, such a dispute between officials was an irony and caused public perception of the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) including DJP. Even if the moge is obtained and purchased with official money and salaries, driving and exhibiting Moge for Tax Officials/Tax Employees and the Ministry of Finance has violated the principles of public propriety and appropriateness. This violates public trust," said Sri Mulyani, quoted from the official Instagram account with the account name @smindrawati on Sunday 26 February. Several days there has been a lot of news about the Director General of Tax Suryo Utomo driving a motorbike with the club Blasting Rijder DJP, namely the tax employee community who likes to ride large motorbikes. This also causes erosion of trust from the community to DJP employees. Therefore, Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani has given instructions to the Director General of Taxes to dissolve the Blasting Rijder club. I ask that the Blasting Ridder DJP club be dissolved. The hobby and lifestyle of driving motorbikes (can) raise negative perceptions of society and raise suspicions about the wealth sources of DJP employees, Sri Mulyani said.

Currently, the Ministry of Finance is being highlighted because of the case of David's beating by Mario Dandy Satriyo by the son of the Head of the General Section of the South Jakarta DGT II Regional Office Rafael Alun Trisambodo (RAT). at the same time, Rafael is also considered to have unnatural assets with a value of Rp 56 billion. This also affects the credibility of DGT in the eyes of the public.
