Shaken by the Reclamation Bribery Case

JAKARTA Governor Basuki Tjahaja 'Ahok' Purnama says no one can manipulate his leadership. The pledge was made after the Corruption Eradication Committee (KPK) slapped a travel ban on staff member Sunny Tanuwidjaja for allegedly bribing a Jakarta lawmaker from the Great Indonesia Movement (Gerindra) Party, Mohamad Sanusi, in relation to the Jakarta Bay reclamation project.

The KPK confiscated Rp140 million and US$8,000 from a Rp1 billion agreed-upon fee. Sunny is suspected of acting as the middle man between Sanusi and a group of investors involved in the reclamation project. These firms were united in opposition to a hike in 'added contribution' that was then being debated at the Jakarta City Council (DPRD).
