The amount ofthis investment value attractedIndonesian Forum for BudgetTransparency (Fitra)’s attention.Advocation and InvestigationCoordinator of Fitra, Apung Widadiconsiders that there ‘game’indication in such Telkom Singtelcooperation. Fitra even bluntlyaccused the such project relatedto data center development ande-government management containsstrong indication of curruptionconducted by Minister of BUMN Rini.Therefore Fitra asked CorruptionEradication Commission (KPK) tobe involved and investigate suchcooperation between Telkom andSingtel. “Alleged corruption isvery strong.

The suddenlydenied that the Development ofTelin Singapore Data Center andTelecommunication Hub (Telin3) donot have any relation with Indonesiae-government,” he assured.Gigih said that if there is norelation with Indonesia, why doSingaporean authority always infavor of Telin in working on thedevelopment of Data Center inJurong with a capacity of 20thousand to target premium classof companies in Singapore and inthe world. Gigih said that fromHuman Resources point of viewand technology there are manySingaporean companies that havefar more advanced capacity thanTelin. It becomes a question whySingaporean authority trust Telin,which just came into the picture in2007, more to manage data center.“It is strongly alleged thatTelin is provided with data centerdevelopment project in Jurong witha compensation that Singtel willwork on e-government service inIndonesia,” he said.According to him, both largeprojects are a strategic step tosmoothen the way for Singaporeto control information technologybusiness and pray on Telkom slowly.Singapore is known to be ambitiousin controlling information technologyin ASEAN areas with the opening ofASEAN Economic Society at the endof this year.Majalah ICTNo. 35• June 2015312
