 Komisi Sekuritas dan Bursa Amerika Serikat (AS) menggugat perusahaan mata uang kripto NovaTech dan salah satu pendirinya karena mereka telah menipu lebih dari 200 juta investor di seluruh dunia senilai US$ 650 juta atau setra Rp 10,4 triliun (asumsi kurs Rp 16.000/US$), termasuk banyak orang Amerika keturunan Haiti.

Mengutip Reuters, NovaTech dan salah satu pendirinya, Cynthia dan Eddy Petion, diduga menjanjikan para investor bahwa uang mereka akan aman. Bahkan, Cynthia Petion memastikan bahwa mereka akan untung sejak hari pertama.

SEC mengatakan bahwa Petion malah menggunakan dana segar baru untuk membayar investor sebelumnya dan membayar komisi kepada promotor, sambil menyedot jutaan dolar untuk diri mereka sendiri. Skema ini berlangsung selama empat tahun hingga keruntuhan NovaTech pada Mei 2023.

Gugatan tersebut dilayangkan pada hari Senin di pengadilan federal Miami atau berselang dua bulan setelah Jaksa Agung New York Letitia James menggugat NovaTech dan Petisi di pengadilan negara bagian di Manhattan. Diperkirakan penipuan mereka mencapai lebih dari US$ 1 miliar.

Regulator mengatakan bahwa NovaTech mencoba menarik kepercayaan agama para korban melalui media sosial, Telegram dan WhatsApp, dan terkadang dalam bahasa Kreol Haiti. Motif yang dilakukan Cynthia Petion mencap dirinya sendiri sebagai CEO Pendeta dan mengatakan bahwa NovaTech adalah visi Tuhan.

Sayangnya, pengacara untuk NovaTech dan Petion yang diyakini tinggal di Panama belum dapat dikonfirmasi

Kedua regulator menyebut penipuan ini sebagai skema piramida, di mana perusahaan membayar bonus atau komisi untuk merekrut investor baru.

SEC juga mendakwa enam promotor NovaTech dengan tuduhan penipuan, dengan mengatakan bahwa mereka terus merekrut investor meskipun ada tanda bahaya, seperti penarikan dana yang tertunda dan tindakan regulasi AS dan Kanada, yang menimbulkan pertanyaan tentang legitimasi NovaTech.

Seorang promotor, Martin Zizi, setuju untuk membayar denda perdata sebesar US$100.000. Namun, engacaranya tidak segera menanggapi permintaan komentar.

Kedua tuntutan hukum tersebut menuntut ganti rugi bagi para korban dan denda perdata.

 Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK) memperkuat penerapan prinsip tata kelola dan manajemen risiko di Lembaga Jasa Keuangan melalui penerbitan Peraturan OJK Nomor 12 Tahun 2024 tentang Penerapan Strategi Anti Fraud bagi Lembaga Jasa Keuangan (POJK SAF LJK).

Penerbitan POJK ini merupakan salah satu inisiatif OJK dalam mendukung pengembangan dan penguatan LJK serta menindaklanjuti masukan Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (KPK) dan Peraturan Mahkamah Agung No.13 Tahun 2016 tentang Tata Cara Penanganan Perkara Tindak Pidana oleh Korporasi.

Mengutip keterangan resminya, POJK SAF LJK ini mengatur penjelasan jenis perbuatan yang tergolong fraud. Kemudian, ruang lingkup pihak yang terlibat meliputi LJK dan organisasi yang dikendalikan, konsumen dan pihak lain yang bekerjasama dengan LJK (termasuk sektor swasta).

Lalu, kewajiban penyusunan dan penyampaian kebijakan SAF, serta penyampaian laporan kejadian fraud, baik laporan rutin maupun insidental, dan sanksi denda keterlambatan penyampaian yang disesuaikan dengan kompleksitas kegiatan usaha LJK.

Selanjutnya, kewajiban penerapan fraud detection system disertai peningkatan pemahaman pihak internal dan eksternal yang terkait, dan didukung penerapan manajemen risiko yang memadai.

Lebih lanjut, pedoman penerapan Strategi Anti Fraud dalam ketentuan ini ditujukan untuk dapat mengarahkan LJK dalam melakukan pengendalian fraud melalui upaya yang tidak hanya ditujukan untuk mencegah, namun juga mendeteksi dan melakukan investigasi serta memperbaiki sistem sebagai bagian dari strategi yang bersifat integral dalam mengendalikan fraud.

Penerbitan POJK SAF LJK tersebut diharapkan dapat mendorong pelaksanaan implementasi anti fraud bagi LJK di bawah pengawasan OJK secara menyeluruh, sehingga tercipta ekosistem keuangan yang kuat dan sehat.

 Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB) Abdullah Azwar Anas lauded the Ministry of Health’s transformation efforts in realizing an impactful bureaucracy.

Anas conveyed this statement when he met with Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin and Deputy Minister of Health Dante Saksono Harbuwono at the Ministry of PANRB on Thursday (Aug 1).

“I appreciate the Ministry of Health that has carried out an impactful transformation, and this can become a sustainable culture within the ministry,” Anas noted in his statement here on Friday.

“This was realized owing to the extraordinary efforts of the Ministry of Health to carry out the president’s directive to create an impactful bureaucracy,” he remarked.

The ministry’s various efforts include simplifying bureaucracy, shortening business processes, and digitalizing the health sector.

Regarding the digitalization of services, the health sector is one of the priority services integrated by INA Digital in one portal.

Anas stated that the impact of bureaucracy implemented by the ministry can also be seen from the value of the bureaucratic reform index and the value of the government agency performance accountability system (SAKIP).

Based on the evaluation results in 2023, the Ministry of Health’s bureaucratic reform index managed to achieve Grade A, while the SAKIP value was Grade BB.

The A predicate for the bureaucratic reform value at the Ministry of Health in 2023 was obtained through the achievements of thematic bureaucratic reform carried out by the ministry.

These achievements include implementing poverty alleviation programs, increasing investment, conducting digitalization of government administration, handling stunting, using domestic products, and controlling the rate of inflation.

“The value of the bureaucratic reform index and the Ministry’s SAKIP in 2023 is above the average value of the ministry and institution index,” Anas stated.

“We hope that the current predicate can be realized and internalized not only within the Ministry of Health in Jakarta but also in all units of the ministry throughout Indonesia,” he further noted.

He expressed hope that in the future, the implementation of SAKIP will be replaced with a government performance accountability system (SAKP). This aims to ensure that the achievement of government agency indicators is in line with the achievement of national indicators.

“We hope that the Ministry of Health would use this momentum to continue to consolidate to improve impactful performance,” he stated.

“Hopefully, the Ministry of Health’s efforts will become a work culture, an extraordinary spirit for all levels in the ministry, the impact of which can be immediately felt by the community,” Anas remarked.

Meanwhile, Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin drew attention to the ministry’s various transformation efforts to support bureaucratic reform within the body.

“This implementation is also in accordance with the president’s directive aimed at bureaucracy having a broad impact on society,” he affirmed.

He drew attention to various steps by the Health Ministry, starting from digitalizing health services, simplifying regulations to increase investment, and ensuring the supply of medical devices and doctors to provide broad benefits to the community.

In addition, the Ministry of Health is reducing applications and ensuring control over the prices of medical devices and medicines to minimize health inflation rates.

“These various initiatives are carried out by the Ministry of Health in accordance with the target of the minister of PANRB so that the bureaucracy in all government agencies focuses on providing an impact on society,” the minister explained.

However, Sadikin pointed to existing shortcomings in the ministry’s efforts to carry out bureaucratic transformation.

Sadikin affirmed that the Healthy Ministry is committed to making improvements, with a focus on improving service indicators so that bureaucratic reform in the ministry can be realized according to President Jokowi’s direction.

Health Minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin has said that his ministry will distribute portable X-rays to areas with high incidence of tuberculosis in a bid to promote screening of children for the disease.

In a statement received here on Friday, he noted that in children, tuberculosis cannot be physically observed, and they cannot be forced to cough, hence their screening requires the use of Roentgen rays, for instance, with the help of portable X-rays.

“As for national scale need, we feel like each province must have two portable X-rays, but right now, we want to prioritize it to provinces which have high TBC cases,” Sadikin informed at the TBC campaign during National Children’s Day commemoration in Bandung on Friday.

According to him, the portable X-rays are aids given by United Arab Emirates. Currently, there are 25 such devices in Indonesia, which are spread across 15 districts and cities in 8 provinces prioritized for TB elimination by 2030.

The prioritized areas, he added, are Banten, West Java, Central Java, East Java, East Nusa Tenggara, South Sulawesi, North Sumatra, and Maluku.

He said he expects that after the initiative in Bandung, other areas that receive the devices will immediately pursue active case finding in August 2024.

Sadikin highlighted that Indonesia has the second-highest TB cases after India. It records 1.060 million new cases and 134 thousand deaths every year — that means, there are 15 deaths from TB per hour in the country.

“Which is why currently, the government, after the COVID-19 pandemic, has been aggressively handing TBC (through) surveillance, to find just where they (the patients) are,” he explained.

The minister informed that the surveillance team detected at least 500 thousand cases in 2021, 700 cases in 2022, and 800 thousand cases in 2023.

“It is expected that this year, 900 thousand TBC cases will be detected. Because if THC cases are found, (they) can immediately be treated. Only four to six months can be healthy,” he said.

He stressed that TBC patients will not infect others if they receive treatment, adding he expects the initiative to help suppress the number of cases.
