The Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP) team was also deployed to investigate in the field.
It was found that the licensing process at Customs and Excise was quite long, namely having to go through 42 desks.
Soeharto finally froze Customs and Excise in order to fight insane corruption in the agency.Its replacement is a Swiss company called Suisse Generale Surveillance or SGS3.
This threat has now re-emerged in the era of the 8th President Prabowo Subianto’s leadership.
According to the Minister of Finance Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa, the image of Customs and Excise is bad in the eyes of President Prabowo.It turns out that the name of this institution is not only bad in society and in the mass media.
“I said this, ‘The image of Customs and Excise is not good in the media, in society, in our highest leadership (President Prabowo Subianto)’. So, we have to improve it seriously,” said Purbaya after a Working Meeting (Raker) with Commission XI DPR RI in Central Jakarta, Thursday (27/11).
Purbaya emphasized that he has one year until 2026 to fix the directorate.If it fails, Customs and Excise will be frozen and 16 thousand employees will be laid off.
Along with these threats, Purbaya saw that Customs and Excise were starting to improve.He also believes that the people in this agency are actually smart, but need to be given special treatment.
“Customs and Excise have moved quite quickly in the last few weeks. Apparently, Customs and Excise people are really smart, they just need to be beaten,” he said at the inauguration of the container scanning equipment at Terminal 3 and Mustika Alam Sari Terminal, Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta, Friday (12/12).
“They (Customs) have made significant improvements. I hope that by March next year (2026) the picture of Customs and Excise will be much different from yesterday,” added the Minister of Finance optimistically.
