Meeting Room of Ministry of Finance
The atmosphere in the meeting room was very tense, when the Minister of Finance delivered a speech related to the amount of money laundry made by Ministry officials. In addition, many NGOs question, many SOE companies are also doing the same thing. The words of welcome delivered by the Minister of Finance straightforwardly, and impressed stabbing the perpetrators.
"Sir Chandra... How are your responses related to the many accusations..? How do you comment, because it includes officials with Echelon II level in this office...?" like a word of sarcasm, the Minister of Finance asked Chandra.
The man who had been focusing on chat with the gadget in his hand looked surprised, but was quickly able to regain control of himself.
"Minister.why do we have to be dizzy with the accusations of such baseless society.. Not since long ago, the Ministry of Finance, Tax Office, Customs, Immigration, Banking is an institution that is always highlighted. It is said to be a wetland to foster money... I'm just relaxed to hear it Minister Ma'am." emphatically, Chandra gave a response,
The other meeting participants nodded their heads, listening to the statement made by the man.
They like to get justification, from the many cases of abuse that they have done.
"It's easy for your statement, Chandra. If we use common sense, we can multiply how much you earn each month, plus, service benefits, official travel, performance benefits and so on. Does it make sense, if you can live with a rich life, my Office as Minister of Finance, your superiors alone cannot match your family's lifestyle.." instead of immediately confirming the man's statement, The Minister of Finance even satirized back.
The atmosphere in the meeting room that had once melted, went back to silence. Everything seemed to focus on their respective activities, and the Minister of Finance as the leader of the hearing, smiled cynically at the attitude of everyone in his unit.
"Please don't misunderstand me like that Minister. We can be like this, because some of us also have assets, which work to make money for us. In several cities in the country, my family and I have restaurants, guest houses, and various facilities that sustain my family's financial resources. So, can't then be hit flat like that..." Chandra appeared to defend himself.
"See what you explain, Mr. Chandra, but I'll create a task force to conduct an investigation. Prepare all of you, and I will not stay silent if there is someone in my institution who does misappropriation and deviation. Reduce travel abroad for all of you, as well as your family, as well as display with branded goods, control yourself.." still with a firm voice, the Minister of Finance made a decision, the statement read,
Discussion after discussion inside the meeting room was getting more and more exciting, and everyone tried to defend themselves. But the Minister of Finance did not want to give up, the woman positioned herself as the highest person in the agency, and also remained adamant and firm. Finally after more than two hours, they discussed, the meeting was immediately ended, with a grunt from the participants of the meeting, But apparently the Minister of Finance did not want to hear it, and immediately came out of the meeting room.
"How is Chandr... do you agree with the instructions from the Minister..?" as Chandra was preparing to exit the meeting room, Cahyono appeared to the official of Echelon 1 approaching the man, and whispered to him.
"Just ignore Cahy for a while we are selective first, and think how will we divert ownership from our assets. Because if there's an audit, or a sudden inspection, we'll get caught and get confiscated by the state." while walking out of the room, Chandra gave a response.
Cahyono and several other officials behind Chandra nodded their heads, feeling they had an idea of how they would save themselves.
**********
After the meeting, Cahyono rushed out of the room and went straight into the elevator. It was not the workspace that the man was aiming for, but went straight to the basement where the man parked his car. It seemed that there was something that the man would take care of.
"I have to find Monica's whereabouts, and ask her to come home. Usually Monica, mama Tantri has brilliant ideas to help me solve this problem. I have to ignore first, if we're still staying, because my assets and my property are more important than anything." while waiting for the elevator to get to the destination, Chandra thought to herself.
"If necessary, I will kneel before my wife, so that her heart may be moved and come back to help me. I must not be rash, must ask my sugar baby to step aside temporarily from my life, by sending her abroad for a walk, or shopping." a sly smile appeared on the man's lips, and the boy was, like having a way out of his problems,
Not long after, the elevator door in front of him opened, and Chandra rushed out from inside the elevator. The man rushed towards the parked car not far from the elevator door.
"Drttt.. drtt.. drttt.." suddenly the man's phone vibrated.
Chandra's hand immediately reached into his pants pocket, and immediately pulled out the phone then saw who was making the outgoing call to him.
"Mmmmppphh.. turned out to be Anggi, my adorable sugar baby. I miss him so much to hug and carry him to bed." the man smiled and muttered to himself.
But Chandra suddenly recalled, about the threat of the Investigation Team to be formed by the Minister of Finance, the smile faded and disappeared. The man immediately received the incoming call...
"There's an important thing if you're looking for me my adorable daughter." To the point, Chandra immediately greeted the woman who became her sugar baby.
"Mas Chandra's... Anggi wants to go on vacation. Friends in the apartment, invited me to do diving in Waktobi, and continued to Raja Ampat. Did Chandra let me, baby...?" with a spoiled voice, Anggi conveyed his wish.
A smile re-rises on Chandra's lips, like a lovable shoot, the ulampun arrives. Not until the man asked Anggi to step aside, but the girl already had her own plans.
"Go baby.., you need time to spend with your friends. In a few moments, check your account, I will send money for pocket, and also accommodation to the tourist spot. Take care of yourself always dear.." shamelessly, the man immediately agreed,
"Thank you dear Chandra. See you next time in Chandra.. Mmuuaaacch...." Anggi seemed pleased with the unusual response. Because usually, wherever the girl goes, Chandra will definitely follow her.
Without the man noticing, not far from where he was standing were two young men who seemed to be watching, and a smiling smile heard his words. In fact, it seems, the two men used a tool to record the conversation.
