According to him, the challenge is to ensure that the transfer of funds to the regions and village funds effectively reaches its objectives so that there should be a new approach to the supervision and security aspects.

In addition, according to him, Dictus Tipikor also prepared to take a big role on the burden of supervision and security burden of national development policy.

According to him, the Corruption Densus is actually nothing more than an escalation and sharpening of the function of the National Police in securing national development policy so that the delay of the Corruption Densus function should not be too long.

"The government should be more proactive in giving understanding to the public about the burden of monitoring and security burden of national development policy," he told media crew in Senayan Jakarta
