JAKARTA - Commission III of the DPR RI appreciates the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for the achievement of Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP) in 2021, which far exceeded the target, which was 244 percent or Rp. 246.299 billion. The KPK previously targeted the 2021 PNBP of 100.9 percent.
Even in early March 2022, KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri admitted that this year's PNBP achievement had reached 64 percent.
"It cannot be covered up, this is an extraordinary performance from the current KPK colleagues," said Member of Commission III of the Indonesian House of Representatives Habiburokhman in a Working Meeting at the DPR Building, Senayan, Jakarta, Wednesday, March 30.
Habiburokhman then highlighted the eradication of corruption in the field of natural resources. According to him, corruption is a crime in the economic field.
"Therefore, the task of the KPK is not only to arrest as many people as possible but how to save state financial losses," he said.
The Gerindra politician gives a thumbs up for the fast movement of the KPK in eradicating corruption in nickel licensing in North Konawe with a potential state loss of 2.7 trillion. He said that technically what happened when it came to licensing was bribery.
"We feel the need to convey that what will be pursued later is not only bribes, but anyone who enjoys these illegal licenses so that it ends up harming state finances to a fantastic value," he said.
"If the bribe is at most tens of billions, but the 2.7 trillion state losses are not directly related to the bribe but are enjoyed by the company that uses the illegal license," he continued.
Habiburokhman hopes that the KPK can investigate and pursue corporations that take advantage of the illegal permits. For example, in North Konawe, since what year has it happened, which companies have been operating, and how much profit have they made.
"That's an illegal profit. So logically, if the state's financial loss is 2.7 trillion, we must also pursue the 2.7 trillion," he explained.
Habiburokhman stressed that the guilty party must be held accountable. He requested that such an enforcement model be the standard.
"If the Corruption Eradication Commission only pursues bribes, there will be very little recovery in the country's finances, but if corporations are pursuing illegal licenses based on bribes, either plantations or mines, then I think it can be significant," he said.
Meanwhile, regarding the cooking oil trade system, Habiburokhman stated that there were legal irregularities and irregularities, and it was suspected that this issue involved state officials. Where the impact is already visible, not only harming the state but directly harming the people.
Therefore, Habiburokhman hopes that the KPK can be at the forefront of investigating this case. He asked the KPK to send a team of investigators to follow the flow of cooking oil production from start to distribution.
"I'm sure the perpetrators will be caught soon. Do not hesitate, if corruption in this sector I think meets the qualifications to be prosecuted for the death penalty. Because not only happens when the country is in crisis, they also cause the country to experience a crisis," he said.
