JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/ANN): President Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo has called for the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to reconsider a decision to dismiss 75 employees, including its top investigators, for failing the civic knowledge test that is part of an employment status transition within the antigraft body.
In a statement uploaded to the Presidential Secretariat’s official YouTube channel on Monday (May 17), Jokowi said the results of the civic test should be used as “a step to the betterment of the KPK, both at the institutional and individual level.”
