In 2012, still attached to the memory, the polemic between the National Police and the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). The second conflict is the law enforcement agency that conducted the investigation stems from the Commission on cases of alleged corruption in the procurement of SIM simulator Korlantas Police. September 2012, the Commission searched the Korlantas and set Korlantas former Chief Gen. Djoko Susilo as a suspect. The conflict continued with the withdrawal of a number of police investigators in the Commission.

Opening a new chapter in 2013, the Head of the Criminal Investigation Police Commissioner General Sutarman said police would increase cooperation with other law enforcement agencies such as the Attorney General and the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) in combating corruption. According to him, corruption is an extraordinary crime that can not be handled by one party alone.

"The crime of corruption is an extraordinary crime that should be handled by increasing the outstanding cooperation, mutual support., And together all law enforcement officers," said Sutarman through short message to Kompas.com, Monday (12/31/2012) night.

Sutarman said, so far the police have to act decisively in cases of law enforcement corruption. However, corruption is still rampant. For that, he said, prevention is a critical step to break the chain of corruption.

"From the aspect of law enforcement are tough enough. Proven us for this action, but corruption is still going on, so in addition to law enforcement prevention should also inflamed by all the people of Indonesia," he said.

A total of 26 internal investigators of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will begin to work effectively around late January or early February 2013



A total of 26 internal investigators of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will begin to work effectively around late January or early February 2013. KPK spokesman Johan Budi said the existence of the internal investigation will speed up the performance of the Commission in handling cases of corruption.

"It's still on the job training (vocational training), late January or early February began to join the Task Force (task force) investigations," said Johan, Tuesday (01/01/2013).

In addition to 26 internal investigator, Johan said the KPK began recruiting new investigators from related organizations such as the police and judiciary. In 2013, says Johan, the eradication of corruption in the Commission increasingly crowded.

Previously, Johan said the KPK would speed up or speed up the handling of cases in 2013. An official at the Commission even mention there will be a number of new suspects in early 2013.

As reported, the Commission admitted its performance slowed by the withdrawal of the police investigation by gradually. Last September, the Police did not extend the 20 tasks in KPK investigators. Following then, 13 penyidk who also extended his term which runs out in November last year.

In addition, a number of police investigation also resigned from the Commission to the reasons for wanting to develop a career in the home institution. Faced with this situation, the Commission began to cope with recruiting new investigators from internal, not from the police or the judiciary. New investigators who participated in the first stage of selection comes from KPK investigation directorate. According to the plan, there will be two stages investigator recruitment.


Members of the National Police Commission (National Police Commission) Adrianus Meliala judge, the police are not investigating the cause of the crisis at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). Because, after pulling investigators, police send a replacement. However, until now, the Commission has not made a new selection of dozens of candidates from police investigators.

"When the police sent a new person, the Commission does not want to accept, it is not a withdrawal. Then, if later in KPK police investigators figure the less, it's not his fault the police," said Adrianus Kompolnas office, Jakarta, Thursday (12/13/2012) .

According to him, the police always do the rotation for a better career. Withdrawal of police origin KPK investigators who have worked on over the next five years is considered reasonable. To that end, the Commission should be able to calculate the likely period of work with the investigators who handled the cases. Thus, when the term of office runs out, the investigator was not the case in the middle of the road.

Furthermore, when there is a new case, it can be handed over to another investigator that his tenure is long. "I think the problem in KPK investigators without me-loading compute their working lives.

On Thursday, a police source the KPK investigators, Ganish Commissioner, resigned. Commissioner Ganish reasonable to develop a career in the parent institution.

Resignation adds to a long list KPK investigators who left and returned to the police. Last November, the police did not extend the 13 tasks in KPK investigators. Earlier, five police investigators at the Commission withdrew the reasons for wanting to pursue a career in the beginning of the institution. Last September, the police did not extend the 20 tasks in KPK investigators.

KPK spokesman Johan Budi said the number of investigators in KPK live 52 people to early December. If the withdrawal continues, KPK investigators will run in March 2013. KPK leaders admitted that the withdrawal reduces the speed of KPK investigators in investigating a case.

In this year, there were 34 cases being handled by the KPK. Relatively large number of cases of public concern like corruption Century bailout, the alleged corruption case exam simulator project license, and case Hambalang.

In fact, Lower House of State for Development Expenditure

In fact, Lower House of State for Development Expenditure


Strangeness in the budgeting function when addressing the House of Representatives Budget of the State with the government, could be seen every year. One is when the Parliament discussed the eyes of the state budget for development expenditure.

In the State Budget (Budget) in 2012, the government proposed development expenditure amounting to Rp 477.5 trillion. But after a discussion with the House, it reduced the amount of development expenditure to Rp 456.6 trillion.

The Coordinator of the Indonesian Parliamentary Monitoring Society (Formappi) Sebastian Salang, this oddity is actually very evident since the turn discussed the draft budget for development expenditure, cut back the House. But after the budget was passed, and by mid-year, the House discussed the Budget changes, then re-development expenditure increases.

In the Revised 2012, development expenditure to Rp 521 trillion. "The new parliament to change the development expenditure in the revised Budget. Why do during the discussion of the revised Budget, when the time is very short, towards the end of the fiscal year. This is strange.'s Why a lot of fictitious projects. Fact that corruption projects, the most since the current budget can be revised budget. This is a mode of cheating in the discussion of the budget, "said Sebastian.

According to him, had no intention of cheating, should the value of development expenditure has been discussed since the state budget, has been raised by the House. Moreover, the development expenditure is in the public interest.

It's different when Parliament discusses routine for employees. Instead the government initially filed a routine expenditure (expenditure) in the 2012 budget amounting to Rp 476.6 trillion. But after a discussion with the House, its value instead jumped to Rp 508 trillion.
