progresifjaya.id, JAKARTA – The West Jakarta Samsat has reacted strongly to the news report by the media korupsi.id entitled; There are Allegations of Extortion at West Jakarta Samsat, Timsus Sambar: Just Let It Be, Mas. In addition to the fact that the data information presented is incorrect or a hoax, the presentation of the news is also not in accordance with journalistic principles because it does not cover both sides or is balanced.
For your information, the news in question contains a brief review of three service bureaus that offer KTP shooting and BPKB ACC services. The services offered use subjective rates from the service bureaus mentioned in the news with the initials BN, YN and WN.
As reported in this news, the illegal KTP shooting service for the taxpayer applicant’s BBN process is priced at Rp250.000 for two-wheeled vehicles and Rp600.000 for four-wheeled vehicles. But strangely and funny, in this news description there is absolutely no allusion to the West Jakarta Samsat, either directly or indirectly. The news script description only indicates the communication process between the taxpayer applicant and the service bureau. Then, where is the point of extortion carried out by the West Jakarta Samsat as written in the news title?
“Ah, this rogue news only hopes for instant money from the West Jakarta Samsat takedown request process. This news has violated journalistic principles because the data is invalid and also unbalanced. It is enough to report this news to the Press Council by the West Jakarta Samsat for resolution,” said Member of the Honorary Council of the Central PWI under the leadership of Hendry CH Bangun, Berman Nainggolan to progresifjaya.id, Monday, (11/11).
According to Berman, the reporting pattern carried out by corruption.id for the news was wrong. The transaction process as reported was carried out by the service bureau with the taxpayer applicant. But funny enough, at the end of the news, this process was confirmed to the West Jakarta Samsat who were not involved in the problem at all.
“The news has no quality. It was made up carelessly, accusing people using invalid data. The use of words and sentences is also careless, without any art. So my suggestion is to kick back and report the media news to the Press Council’s complaint section,” Berman said again.
“Moreover, news takedowns are also prohibited by Law Number 40 of 1999 concerning the Press. What exists is the right to reply to what is reported. So in my opinion, West Jakarta Samsat doesn’t need to bother. Why think about low-quality news that has many mistakes,” he added. (Bembo)
