JAKARTA (ISL News) - PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Regional 2 is committed to strengthening its anti-corruption culture and minimizing legal risks in port operations. This is proven by the holding of the 2nd Regional Legal Forum with the theme "Mitigating Corruption and State Losses in BUMN from the Perspective of Law Enforcement Officials" on May 30 2024 at PT Pendidikan Maritime dan Logistik Indonesia (PMLI) Ciawi, Bogor.
This forum was attended by legal officers from 12 Pelindo Regional 2 branches and several Pelindo Subsidiaries domiciled in Jakarta, as well as representatives of Law Enforcement Officials (APH) from Polda Metro Jaya and the North Jakarta District Prosecutor's Office. This event aims to increase awareness of the laws that apply inside and outside the company, as well as understanding legal risk mitigation strategies, especially regarding Corruption and state losses.
Realizing the Importance of Legal Awareness
In his speech, Executive Director 2 Pelindo Regional 2, Drajat Sulistyo, emphasized the importance of legal awareness for workers. "We must increase the awareness and knowledge we have to understand and master the applicable laws, both in companies, the Ministry of BUMN, and the State. "The law in the book and the actions in the law must also be the same, because if they are different it means they are wrong," stressed Drajat.
Pelindo Legal Group Head, Agus Hermawan, added that the Pelindo Regional 2 Legal Forum aims to socialize the legal boundaries that apply in companies and countries to workers. Apart from that, this forum also aims to ensure that business at the port runs in accordance with applicable legal requirements in order to mitigate legal risks that may occur in the future.
Equalizing Perceptions of the Corruption Law

This aims to equalize the perception and understanding of legal officers regarding the rules and regulations related to Corruption.
