JAKARTA - Chairman of Commission B for the Economy of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Ismail, said that his party would summon Perumda Pasar Jaya to ask for clarification on rumors circulating about the alleged corruption in the procurement of social assistance (bansos) in DKI 2020. However, Ismail admitted that he could not schedule the day for the summons of Pasar Jaya in their working meeting. This is because Commission B already has a fairly busy meeting schedule with several other BUMDs. "The plan for the summons is there. The timing is probably in February because January is full. As of mid-February there has been a meeting (schedule) with Jakpro, Ancol, MRT Jakarta, to Transjakarta, directly with the SKPD. Then with the Directorate of Traffic (Polda Metro Jaya) related to e-TLE," said Ismail at the DKI Jakarta DPRD Building, Monday, January 16. The parties who will be asked to attend the meeting are the President Director of Pasar Jaya and the President Director of PT Food Station Tjipinang Jaya who are also assigned to procure social assistance. During the meeting, Commission B of the DKI DPRD will ask Pasar Jaya to reveal the results of the audit of financial reports regarding procurement and distribution of social assistance during the leadership era of the former Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan. "Regarding the explanation of the audit report. Because the old one has entered the realm of the Inspectorate, BPKP, and the KPK, if possible, it is strongly indicated that there is corruption," he said. The issue of social assistance corruption originated from the Twitter account @kurawa belonging to social media activist, Rudi Valinka, who highlighted the allocation of the social assistance procurement budget from the DKI Provincial Government to three companies to take care of the distribution of 11 stages of social assistance. In addition, the ceiling for the provision of social assistance by Perumda Pasar Jaya is the largest compared to other companies, which is IDR 2.85 trillion. However, Rudi did not clearly specify the alleged corruption. He also only revealed data that was claimed to be the result of a forensic audit of the public accounting firm (KAP) Ernst & Young who stated that there was an unknown surprise (unknown loss) worth Rp150 billion. Furthermore, the @warawa account also opens data that is suspected to be a list of vendors and suppliers for the procurement of social assistance for the DKI Provincial Government. Dalam daftar tersebut, terdapat beberapa vendor dan suplier yang bukan belakang penyedia bahan makanan, melainkan pengelola parkir hingga kontraktor bangunan. Next, @kurawa also revealed the condition of the rice storage warehouse which was suspected to be for the distribution of social assistance. The condition of the rice there has started to rot with the color of the rice that has turned yellow and accompanied by fungi.
