Bribery at Tanjung Batu

Not long after the British Serious Fraud Office (SFO) released their findings on the Rolls-Royce bribery case, Sofyan Basir immediately gathered stacks of documents. The CEO of the state-owned electricity company PLN bent over backwards to collect data because the Rolls-Royce case also implicated PLN officials. "We immediately handed over all data to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK)," said Sofyan last week.

The data mentioned refer to all documents related to the agreement between Rolls-Royce and PLN during the 2007-2014 period. Sofyan and all PLN directors also paid close attention during the one-hour visit to the KPK office last week. The purpose of the meeting, Sofyan said, was to coordinate a better control system within his establishment.
