INVESTIGATION OF BRIBERY IN MAKING SIMS

Obtaining evidence
Fraud that occurs in the sector public such as bribery, abuse authori

ty, embezzlement state assets, extortion to trading influence (trading influence) is action
criminal who is extraordinary. Thing this can be seen in a variety of ways corruption cases that
occur within various forms in the government sector has caused financial losses a very large
country and truly harms society. This situation has shown that corruption must indeed be
considered as a very crime dangerous. Therefore, certain systems are needed in order to eradicate
corruption.
Talking about public services, there will be no end to being discussed. Many slanted views
when the word public service is discussed. Public service often associated with things that are
dirty, corrupt, convoluted, and lacking officers friendly. Maybe this could not have happened, but
this is the reality felt by the author in our country. Public services or public services should be
able to defined as all forms of services, both in the form of public goods and public services
which in principle are the responsibility and implemented by Government Agencies at the
Center, in the Regions, and within the State-Owned Enterprises or Regional Owned Enterprises,
in the context of efforts to fulfill community needs as well as in the implementation of statutory
provisions. Example from this public service a lot. For example making SIM, E-KTP, services
electricity (PLN), PDAM, PT KAI, tax services, passport management and all forms licensing.
In accordance with Law No. 22 of 2009 that everyone is required to have a driver's license
(SIM) to drive a vehicle on the highway, so as a community that has fulfilled the requirements
and obeys the rules can apply for a SIM. Incessant bureaucratic reform by the government
certainly has a goal to serve the public and transparency. But the reality on the ground sometimes
says something else.
On September 6, 2016, from one of the cities in Indonesia, I went to the police station in
the city (around 30 KM) to arrange the SIM C. The procedure that I went through was to fill out
the registration form, then do a health check (Rp. 50,000), then make Fingerprint Identity Card
(IDR 50,000). Take the theory test (not passed in the first try). 2 Weeks later I took a driving test.
The thing that became my concern was that there were a lot of breathing banners "Avoid brokers
in obtaining a SIM", but it has become an open secret that in this Police Station, many police
officers are SIM brokers. Starting from the parking attendant, photocopy guard, to the police
themselves, they offered "assistance" at a fairly expensive price. What I hear is that there are
those who pay up to Rp. 400,000.

Reporting
This is very unfair in my opinion, because the procedure for making a SIM does not apply
to those who are wealthy. Those who are wealthy do not have to take a theory test and driving
test, because they have already received "help".
I and other examinees who tried to have a SIM in accordance with the procedure, it was
just like being played with, with a driving test that was fairly difficult, even though I had time to
find someone who succeeded and escaped. What I feel is that the motorbike is difficult to control
and the obstacles are manipulated, I do not understand what the obstacles in the Polres driving
test field are in accordance with the rules set or not. For example, a zigzag turn test. From my
experience, the distance between the stakes is too narrow, for the size of a motorcycle. From here
it often fails, besides, it also tests the "U" Letter turn. as if forcing these honest people to take
"short cuts".
In essence, I want these practices to be lost in all police stations throughout Indonesia,
especially in the Regency. I agree that there has been a deviation or not the implementation of
bureaucratic reform related to transparency in the process of making SIMs at the Polres.

Testifying
The RI Ombudsman reported several involved in the process of making SIMs to
Kakorlantas. The Ombudsman said that the most frequent cancellations were brokers and liars.
"Almost all the places we have conducted our own motion investigation, the practice of
brokering and maladministration in making SIMs is the most common," said RI Ombudsman
member Adrianus Meliala at the Ombudsman office, Jl Rasuna Sahid, South Jakarta.
Adrianus called the practice of extortion (illegal levies) and brokering being his own
reported problems. Not even a few officers actually offer services. "Procedure deviations such as
not taking a written test or practical exam but can get a SIM. Then requests for money or
compensation outside the procedure, officers who act improperly or improperly such as officers
who are not supposed to do services offer services," said Adrianus.
Adrianus suggested with the rise of illegal fees and the practice of brokering to the Traffic
Corps to conduct evaluations. So that Satpas service becomes more transparent. "It is necessary
to evaluate and arrange the flow of services with public service standards according to the
mandate of Law No. 25 of 2009 concerning public services. And if it can form and ensure a
special team to oversee the SIM service process according to its standards," concluded Adrianus.

Assisting in fraud detection and prevention

There will be three impacts generated from the extortion. First, extortion that occurs in
agencies nor the institution will disturb and there is burdensome society. Second, in the context
of the business world, it can also be affect the investment climate. Person who want to invest in
Indonesia but with this extortion disorder, where each takes care of something becomes
convoluted, takes a long time if no tribute is given and it can reduce interest from investors.
Third, the rampant extortion will affect the decline of authority law.
The Saber Pungli Task Force is authorized carry out hand arrest operations against illegal
extortionists. The importance of this capture operation related to the fact that in the life of every
citizen on essentially requires service public in terms of administration, such as deeds birth,
family card, sign card residents, ticket violations, return of evidence, to deed Dead.
Administrative dimension which is need these public services very vulnerable to illegal levies
namely imposition of fees or levies at a place that should have no cost worn or picked on
location or in the activity. Activities charge fees or ask for money forcibly by someone to other
parties and this is a practice of crime or deed criminal acts classified criminal corruption.
The solutions that can be done to be better are:
1. Officers at the entrance should provide brochures on how to make / extend SIMs so that
people understand and follow the rules. Or it could also be a banner containing the
procedure for making a SIM
2. Install CCTV in every corner of the building SIM-making area, so that police officers
who "offer assistance" are more easily monitored
3. Minimize the payment process in the police station so that people who come to take care
of the SIM only carry a doter certificate + photocopy of ID so that when they arrive in the
 area of making a public SIM, they just need to fill in the required data and follow the next
procedure
4. There needs to be a quick follow-up of each complaint so that the truth submitted can be
proven, for example disguised as a civil society and tried to do it Hopefully this
improvement report will be a passion to make Indonesia free from corruption and good
public services. Because the best of humans is the most useful for many people.
5. Based on Article 2 of the Presidential Regulation Number 87 of 2016 concerning Units
The Task of Sweeping the Illegal Levies it is known that the Saber Pungli Task Force
have the task of carrying out eradication of illegal levies effective and efficient with
optimizing the use of personnel, work units, and infrastructure, both who are in the
ministry / institution and regional government. Next Article 3 states that in carry out
duties as referred to in Article 2, Saber Pungli Task Force carrying out functions:
intelligence, prevention, prosecution and justice.
6. Other efforts made by Tim Saber Pungli in the response wild levies are giving
recommendation to law enforcement to provide criminal sanctions against extortionists.
Collection practices wild uncontrollable and pervasive to almost all agencies that serve
public affairs and interests, fine agencies at the central level and in the area must be
addressed. The elements in various institutions it seeks personal gain by abusing that
position on him.
7. Every fee is not official, levies forced by using momentum and abuse positions that have
no legal basis is a criminal act of corruption. Including levies that are not accompanied by
receipt of payment, request commission which is considered as a habits and asking for
facilitation payments to speed up the bureaucratic process, still not justified. Whoever is
feeling disadvantaged should be brave report to the authorities though the proof is
sometimes difficult.
