Jokowi’s approval, said Listyo, was given after his party wrote directly to notify him of his request. Jokowi’s answer, he continued, was sent in writing through the Minister of State Secretary Pratikno on 27 September.
“We sent a letter to the President to appeal to 56 people who carried out the TWK test who did not pass the test and were not appointed as KPK ASN so that we could withdraw and then we recruited them to become Polri ASN,” Listyo said. “He agreed to the 56 KPK employees to become National Police ASNs.”
