Many Officials In South Sorong Haven't Reported Wealth, KPK Asks To Give As Soon As Possible

SORONG- The KPK Corruption Prevention Coordination Task Force said that most officials in both executive and legislative circles in Sorong Regency have not reported the State Administrators Wealth Report (LHKPN).

"Starting from the regent, three regional assistants were added, several regional heads and DPRD heads and members had not yet reported LHKPN," explained KPK Corruption Prevention Coordination Task Force Chairman Dian Patria while chairing a monitoring meeting with South Sorong Regency officials, Friday, May 19.

In fact, according to Dian, LHKPN or the State Administrators Wealth Report is a report that must be submitted by state officials regarding their assets when they first took office, transfers, promotions, and pensions.

He acknowledged that in terms of compliance with the reporting of assets of officials, only 30 percent of the executives had reported LHKPN.

"Of the 20 mandatory to report to the legislature of South Sorong Regency, only one has reported it," said Dian.

It was noted that the chairman of the Sorsel DPRD, Martinus Maga, and other DPRD leaders such as Javries Nelson Kewetare and Badminton Dorowe, had not yet conveyed the LHKPN.

For the KPK, said Dian, the submission of LHKPN is a commitment from officials to be transparent and anti-corruption.

"LHKPN is a form of goodwill from officials to uphold integrity and say no to corruption," said Dian.

Currently, the KPK is developing a corruption detection instrument from LHKPN to see and detect the truth and validity of each LHKPN report from the relevant official.

"So that we know whether the report is true or not, do not let the reported assets be untrue," said Dian.

Moreover, he never reported LHKPN, said Dian, of course, it is clear that there is something to hide.

"You could be afraid to report it, because something is covered up," said Dian

Such conditions and attitudes, said Dian, could be an entry point for TPK and TPPU to conduct searches.

"So both the government as an executive and legislature must improve as soon as possible before being caught," Dian hoped.
