Google denies involvement in Indonesian project which caused USD 125 million in state losses

Former Google executives on Monday denied the company’s involvement in a massive procurement project at Indonesia’s Education Ministry that prosecutors say caused USD 125 million in state losses.

Nadiem Anwar Makarim, 41, a co-founder of Indonesia’s ride-hailing and payment company Gojek, was arrested in September as a former education minister following an investigation into the alleged corruption linked to the procurement of Chromebook laptops.
