PEMATANGSIANTAR CITY IS THE #5th FS AUDIT

Reading time: 4 minutes 

North Sumatera consists of one province, 25 regencies, and eight cities. Pursuant to Article 2 Act No. 15 Year 2006 concerning the Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia, management and accountability of state finance is audited by a free and independent institution, namely the Audit Board (Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan/BPK).

For this budget year, I was assigned to Pematangsiantar Municipality (shortly, Siantar) to conduct audit over their financial statements. For your information, Siantar Government submitted their financial statements budget year 2017 on Feb 28, 2018 which made them as the first entity who presented accountability reports to the Audit Board. After conducted audit on their financial statements for about two months, Siantar officially received unqualified opinion from the Audit Board.

As the second largest city in North Sumatera, Siantar has some interesting places such as renowned coffee shops (Kok Tong and Sedap), Siantar Zoo, Roti Ganda Shop, Horas Market, Siantar Waterpark, and (first and foremost) super cozy Horison Hotel. Besides, several local and foreign tourists whose destination is Toba Lake or Samosir Island often do transit in Siantar.

Wait, the other convenient thing in Siantar is the online transportation. I bet you know Gojek and Grab! Yes. They are in Siantar. We could easily order Goride, Gocar, Gofood, and the other Go-Go-Go.

To me, living 60 days in Siantar was like a blink of an eye. For those who have plans to visit North Sumatera, I suggest you to put Siantar City in your bucket list.
