This situation can ascribed to the vicious<br>\ncircle of corruptive practices and lack of shame on the part of<br>\nthose perpetrating the corrupt acts.<\/p>\n<p>There have been attempts to control the bureaucracy, but<br>\ncorruption nevertheless continues. A contributory factor to the<br>\nfailure of these attempts has been the willingness of law<br>\nenforcers to save the guilty from embarrassment. Attempts to<br>\neradicate corruption in our country have so far been an elaborate<br>\nfabrication.<\/p>\n<p>The Republic of Indonesia has been independent for 53 years.<br>\nIt is regrettable that after all this time there is apparently<br>\nstill no civil society. According to Dr. Heru Nugroho it is in<br>\nfact not allowed.<\/p>\n<p>But the Republic of Indonesia is not a military state. Common<br>\npeople are in the majority, although many civilian posts, such as<br>\ngovernor, minister and regent, are occupied by the military, in<br>\nline with the armed forces' dual function.<\/p>\n<p>Eradication of corruption should be given priority in light of<br>\nthe recent monetary and economic problems and the resulting<br>\ncrisis of confidence in the government.<\/p>\n<p>Officials who feel they are no longer capable of fulfilling<br>\ntheir tasks should resign in dignity, rather than hang on until<br>\nthey become the object of scorn.<\/p>\n<p>To overcome the many \"national disasters\" which have befallen<br>\nour country, a leader who is honest and of good moral standing<br>\nmust be found from within the ranks of our society.<\/p>\n<p>I am convinced that someday such a person will appear to lead<br>\nthis country. God willing!<\/p>\n<p>MAS SOEBANDI<\/p>\n<p>Jakarta<\/p>",
