He revealed, in the trial process at the Jakarta Corruption Court later, it is hoped that the disclosure of the facts of the trial can be more transparent, so that the truth will be revealed truly.

"Yes, we hope that everything can be more transparent, because we strictly comply with and follow the law in Indonesia," said the wife of the former 2015-2016 Minister of Trade.

He also thanked KY for taking the initiative to monitor the judicial processes that have been carried out in the last few weeks.

It is hoped that KY will also actively monitor the trial process, as a form of maintaining the judicial process in accordance with the law or regulations.
