Refl: Belum lama berselang SBY lakukan apa yang disebut resufle kabinet, yaitu dengan ditambah wakil-wakil menteri, jadi hanya resufle bayangan, bukan sungguh-sungguh. Menteri-menteri yang jago sulap terus saja melakukan tugas seperti biasa. Sekarang mau bersihkan kabinet. Bukankah semua menteri bukan saja konco bin sahabat tetapi saling bersahabat dengan presiden dan sebaliknya, jadi siapa membersihakan siapa?

(Antara Photo/Widodo S Jusuf) President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono wants all suspicious transactions involving his ministers to be investigated, Cabinet Secretary Dipo Alam said on Monday. “The most important thing is that the president wants corruption-eradication efforts to continue to run, no matter who is involved,” Dipo told reporters after a hearing with House of Representatives Commission II, which oversees home affairs. A recent Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) report showed 2,000 “suspiciously large” bank transactions involving accounts linked to ministers and legislators, mostly from the controversial House Budget Committee. Dipo said the presidential office had not yet received the PPATK data but that a legal process was already under way. Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) chairman Abraham Samad told lawmakers in another hearing on Monday that all 2,000 transactions were being reviewed. Specifically, PPATK chairman Muhammad Yusuf said there were at least 23 suspiciously large transactions between high-profile graft suspect Muhammad Nazaruddin, the former treasurer of the president’s Democratic Party, and active ministers. “Whether any of those are connected to crimes, we are still verifying,” he told House Commission III, which oversees legal affairs, last week. One transaction, he said, involved Rp 100 billion ($11 million). Asked by Golkar Party lawmaker Bambang Soesatyo exactly how many ministers Yusuf was referring to, the PPATK chairman vaguely responded “not many, just one or two [ministers].” Two ministers, Manpower and Transmigration Minister Muhaimin Iskandar, from the National Awakening Party (PKB), and Youth and Sports Affairs Minister Andi Mallarangeng, from the Democratic Party, have been fighting graft allegations since last year. Muhaimin has been accused by officials in his ministry on trial for corruption of asking for a 2 percent “commitment fee” from companies hoping to benefit from projects funded by his office. Andi has been accused by Nazaruddin of involvement in the graft scandal surrounding the construction of the athletes’ village for last year’s Southeast Asian Games. Both ministers have denied the allegations while testifying as witnesses in court. Earlier, graft convict Mindo Rosalina Manulang, who is also a key witness against Nazaruddin, said through her lawyer that a minister had asked for a “fee” from the Rp 181 billion athletes’ village project. “I don’t know [who the minister is] yet,” Abraham told lawmakers from Commission III in a separate hearing on Monday. The two ministers were suggested as targets for replacement before last year’s cabinet reshuffle because of graft allegations against them. Both, however, were kept on by the president. Asked if another cabinet reshuffle could be coming, Dipo said it was possible. “Why not? Anything can happen in two and a half years [until the next presidential election],” he said. Previously, the PPATK discovered suspicious transactions linked to 53 candidates for first-tier public offices who were scheduled to be inaugurated. They were not named and it is unclear if they were inaugurated.
