JAKARTA, KOMPAS — The image of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) has again been tarnished after the Bank Tabungan Negara (Bank BTN) president director from 2012 to 2019, Maryono, was declared as a bribery suspect. The alleged corruption at the state-owned bank points to a poor policymaking and appointment system at state-run corporations.
Senior researcher Enny Sri Hartati of the Institute for Development of Economics and Finance (Indef) said that she was not surprised by the alleged corruption at Bank BTN.
