JAKARTA - PSI politician Rian Ernest criticized the leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). This criticism departs from the report submitted by the KPK to Greenpeace Indonesia following the laser shooting some time ago.

According to Rian Ernest, Firli Bahuri as the number one person in the KPK forgot that this institution was built from the spirit of the people who were fed up with corrupt practices in the country.

Still remember the long episode of Cicak Vs Crocodile that caught the public's attention in 2009. The people work together to provide moral support to the KPK so that it continues to work to eradicate corruption.

"These friends actually carry the people's mandate (to eradicate corruption). Their enthusiasm for eradicating corruption is manifested in their voices and actions that constantly criticize the KPK (shooting lasers for example). Criticize activists because they love them, because they put their hope in "Because the history of the KPK is the history of the people who are fed up with the behavior of corrupt officials who use their positions for personal gain," said Rian Ernest through the CokroTV Youtube channel, quoted by VOI, Friday, July 23.

In that frame, Greenpeace Indonesia 'dare' to fire a laser at the KPK building. The content of Greenpeace's criticisms is varied. For example, 'dare to be honest and fire' and 'people are sick of it.'

Evidently, this criticism has received public attention and has been widely reported by the mass media. Apart from the issue of the National Insight Test (TWK) which aborted 75 employees as the basis for Greenpeace's criticism, according to Rian Ernest, is it wise for the KPK to process a laser shot at the South Jakarta Metro Police?

Whereas previously, the KPK actually appreciated laser-shooting as a form of support in eradicating corruption.

"Did the shooting of the laser harm the state's finances? Disrupt the investigation? Disrupt the pursuit of fugitives? Disrupt the prevention of corruption? asked Rian Ernest.

With this report, it is detrimental to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi), who is constitutionally responsible for the KPK as the executive. Not to mention the negative narrative that develops on social media about repression and authoritarianism.

"It will be more assertive if the KPK makes a police report. Hopefully, you (Firli Bahuri) can reconsider the KPK report. I want the KPK not to be further away, not to be more distant from the people," said Rian Ernest.
