Makassar, May 2, 2025 – The Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees (KA MWA) of Hasanuddin University met on Friday, May 2, 2025, at the MWA Meeting Room, 4th Floor of the Rectorate Building. The periodic KA meeting scheduled to review the performance of Unhas internal audit during the first quarter was chaired by the Chairperson of KA MWA, Prof. Dr. Kartini, SE., M.Si., Ak., CA., and attended by other KA members.

In carrying out its supervisory function, the Board of Trustees is assisted by the Audit Committee, whose task is to help the Board of Trustees ensure the effectiveness of the internal control system and the implementation of the duties of the external auditor and the function of SPI. On this occasion, the Chairperson of KA reemphasized the importance of accountability and transparency in managing Unhas as PTNBH and implementing good governance. “The planning and implementation of internal audits should be outlined in the risk-based SPI Work Program for 2025 and refer to the Unhas Internal Audit Charter, said Prof. Kartini, who is also a Unhas Professor at the Faculty of Economics and Business.

The meeting also highlighted the importance of establishing a separate risk committee, considering that the risk management function is currently still attached to SPI, which the Unhas Risk Management Unit carries out. In closing the meeting, KA emphasized the importance of formal communication between KA and SPI following the applicable procedures. The mechanism for submitting work programs and audit reports in an orderly manner will be part of strengthening university governance.
