Pada 9 Juni 2020, Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (KPK) menggelar webinar bertajuk ” Memahami Oligarki, Aspek Ketatanegaraan, Ekonomi, dan Politik Pemberantasan Korupsi.”
Terus terang saya tertegun menerima undangan dari KPK, antara percaya dan tak percaya. Terbersit keraguan, jangan-jangan menjelang hari penyelenggaraan bakal dibatalkan mengingat isu yang diangkat tergolong “provokatif” di tengah persepsi publik terhadap KPK yang merosot pasca pelemahan KPK dengan kehadiran Undang-undang KPK yang baru.
Keraguan saya ternyata luluh dan sirna. Acara berlangsung dengan lancar. Semua pembicara, termasuk Prof. Jeffrey Winters, pengarang buku Oligarki yang telah diterjemahkan dalam bahasa Indonesia, leluasa menyampaikan pandangannya tanpa pembatasan sama sekali, bahkan mengkriitik KPK sekalipun.
Semoga KPK bisa terus menjalankan tugasnya yang kian berat dalam memberantas korupsi.
Isi lengkap acara ini bisa disaksikan di sini.
