[SINGAPORE] Indonesian authorities have contacted a number of Singapore-based trading companies to request their cooperation in a US$12 billion corruption probe involving state-owned oil giant Pertamina.
The oil traders received notices earlier this month, asking them to assist the office of Indonesia’s attorney general by answering questions on overall governance and past transactions, according to several people who were sent or saw the invitation. They asked not to be identified as they are not authorised to speak publicly.
Earlier communication had sought to invite traders to Jakarta, but the people said the latest missive, sent from a Pertamina email address, specified interviews would be conducted at Singapore’s Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB), without confirming dates. There is no suggestion that those called to assist have been accused of any wrongdoing.
