CORRUPTION ERADICATION COMMISSION - JAKARTA. President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) refused to comment on the actions of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) which seized hundreds of millions of rupiah in the office of the Minister of Religion Lukman Hakim Saifuddin.
"I do not want to comment, this case is still under investigation," Jokowi said after attending the Perindo National Party Meeting at the JIExpo Kemayoran, Jakarta, Tuesday (3/19).
