JAKARTA - The community's Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has not misunderstood the investigation into alleged riots in Papua. This step was taken to improve the welfare of the people on Earth of Cendrawasih.
"The massive effort to eradicate corruption in Indonesia is actually to advance national development, namely for the welfare and prosperity of a just society. Likewise, the efforts to eradicate corruption that the KPK is currently carrying out in the Papua region," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Thursday, 22 September.
Ali reminded that corruption is a despicable act. If this continues, the welfare of the community could be disrupted even though there is a lot of potential in Papua.
"The government budget, natural resources, and other economic potential in Papua, which if used properly and according to the provisions, can be enjoyed as much as possible for the improvement of the welfare of the people evenly," he said.
In addition, the central government has poured a lot of money for the people in Papua through the special autonomy fund (Otsus). Thus, Ali said allegations of corruption should no longer occur in Papua.
"The total realization of the flow of special autonomy funds (otsus) and additional infrastructure funds (DTI) from 2002 to 2021 for the provinces of Papua and West Papua has reached IDR 138.65 trillion. Meanwhile, transfer funds to regions and village funds (TKDD) from 2005-2022 reached IDR 702.3 trillion," he said.
"It is very unfortunate if this gifted land is managed incorrectly, it is even suspected that there have been modes of corruption," continued Ali.
