Dompu PAUD Project Reported to Prosecutor's Office over Relocation

The manager of the Ambi Early Childhood Education Learning Group (KB PAUD) in Dompu Regency, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), has been reported to the Dompu District Prosecutor’s Office (Kejari). The complainant, Hardi, a resident of Matua Village, Woja District, Dompu, reported the Rp 1.1 billion project because it had been relocated.

According to the complainant, Hardin, the project, which uses revitalisation funds from the 2026 budget, does not match the coordinate points submitted in the proposal approved by the Education, Youth and Sports Office (Disdikpora).

“The new location does not match the address stated in the operational permit and the coordinate points in the Dapodik application,” Hardin said when contacted by detikBali on Thursday (27/8/2026).

Hardin filed the report with the Dompu Prosecutor’s Office on Wednesday (26/8/2026). The report was accompanied by photographic evidence of the PAUD building at the new location, Basic Education Data (Dapodik) and the operational permit.

Hardin believes the project has violated Regulation of the Minister of Education and Culture Number 84 of 2014, Articles 5 and 10, concerning the Establishment of PAUD Units. This is one of the grounds for his report to the Prosecutor’s Office.

Hardin explained that the PAUD is registered in Dapodik and holds Operational Permit Number 426/098/Dikpora/2019, with an address in Kandai Dua Urban Village, Woja District. However, the revitalisation project was built in Matua Village, Woja District.

“Articles 5 and 10 require PAUD operations to comply with the permit and require reporting of any changes. If the Dapodik address does not match the facts, it has the potential to cause losses to state finances,” he said.

Hardin asked the Dompu Prosecutor’s Office to immediately conduct an investigation and field inspection of Ambi PAUD at both addresses.

“We ask the prosecutor’s office to immediately follow up and impose sanctions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. To legally process the manager of Ambi PAUD because it is considered to have caused losses to state finances,” he stressed.

Meanwhile, the KB PAUD manager contacted by detikBali has not yet provided a statement regarding the report.
