The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said data collection on aid needs for disaster victims must be carried out. This step is considered important to prevent the prevention or provision of assistance to those who do not need it.
"Do not let social assistance due to COVID and disasters create injustice, so that it can cause (assistance, red) to be intercepted, hampered because (the community, red) feels that they have been passed, feels victims but are not given, even reach others," said KPK Deputy Chair Nurul Ghufron in a KPK RI YouTube broadcast, Friday, December 2.
"The closest one first is to reach the worst so as not to cause chaos in the future," he continued.
After identification is carried out, disaster assistance management must also be carried out optimally. Moreover, the victims usually get a lot of help from various agencies.
This management can be done by collecting data using the Population Identification Number (NIK). The KPK ensures that it will continue to work to monitor the provision of assistance to disaster victims.
Ghufron said that the KPK's attention was given because many disasters that occurred in the country actually became a field of corruption. "Assistance both COVID and disaster, the disaster is always behind it reaping corruption," he said.
There are several corruption cases that have been handled by the KPK related to the provision of assistance. Thus, the KPK reminds that identification of good needs and management must be carried out optimally.
"Many have helped (disaster victims, ed). Local, private, and community governments but then many managers are not trusted so they are misused for their own interests," he said.
Ghufron also ensured that the KPK would cooperate with the Ministry of Social Affairs (Kemensos) to monitor the distribution of aid. So that victims can get their rights.
"KPK has been working with the Ministry of Social Affairs to validate identity with the form of loss, the need has only been coordinated and then coordinated on the truth of the NIK, address, and needs," he concluded.
