BEKASI: Members of the Bekasi Council have highlighted the
absence of Rp 2.3 billion (US$270,588) in road construction
projects from the 2004 budget proposal, raising the possibility
of abuse because the projects were awarded without a tender.
Councillor Sardjono Saputro said recently they would seek
clarification from officials at the public works agency
overseeing the projects.
Separately, the coordinator of the Coalition of Clean
Officials in Bekasi, Iqbal Daud, alleged that a contractor was
awarded a Rp 2 billion project to repair Jl. Raya Jatiwaringin
without having to go through the tender process. -- Antara
