Minister of Finance (Menkeu) Sri Mulyani emphasized that she would continue to strive to strengthen integrity for all levels in optimizing the role of state finances.

According to him, one of the important things that is strategic in nature is anti-corruption culture for all parties.

Sri Mulyani said that this step is important in realizing institutions with the category of corruption-free regions (WBK) and clean bureaucratic areas serving (WBBM).

"I know that all units have made this effort, I thank all of you even though maybe the status is not yet WBK or WBBM but essentially has done anti-corruption things," he said while delivering a keynote speech on the commemoration of World Anti-Corruption Day, Tuesday, December 13.

The Minister of Finance added that he was concerned if there were agencies that had won the WBK and WBBM predicates but there were unscrupulous officials caught in corruption so that they were arrested by law enforcement officials.

"If we have declared WBK and WBBM then no devil or tuyul will turn our hearts around. (It is necessary to remember that) The opportunity (for corruption) could always come. We must remind each other and take care of each other is the key (to avoid corruption). Integrity will always be tested," he said.

The Minister of Finance also revealed that all members of the Ministry of Finance must be able to maintain 414 work units that have the status of WBK and WBBM in order to maintain credibility in their work.

VOI noted that Finance Minister Sri Mulyani recently often used the term klenik in delivering speeches.

Finally, he mentioned that there are a number of state assets that are not properly utilized, causing concerns about a decline in value and quality.

"Often we consider this (goods/assets) belonging to the state and then we feel like we don't care and don't take care of it. This happens a lot, there are plots of land, there are offices that are strategically located and only used for warehouses. In fact, they are completely empty and maybe the place is tuyul," said the Minister of Finance last November.

Most recently, Meranti Regent Muhammad Adil had mentioned the Ministry of Finance employees as demons and demons in a video clip that went viral on social media.

Adil made this statement as a form of disappointment with the state treasury agency over the oil and gas profit sharing fund (DBH) which was deemed inappropriate.

"This person (the Ministry of Finance) contains a demon or a demon? Today, sir (Director General of Fiscal Balance at the Ministry of Finance Luky Alfirman) I chased you here. I want to know the clarity (about DBH)," said fair.
