The inflation\nrate was recorded at 2.48 percent, a sharp decline from 4.32 percent in\nMarch 2026. This achievement was highlighted during the Regional\nInflation Control Coordination Meeting, combined with the launch of\nanti-corruption education teaching materials by the Ministry of Home\nAffairs (Kemendagri) and the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), on\nMonday (11\/5). The meeting was attended virtually by Alvisena, Special\nStaff for Economics, Finance, and Development, from the VIP Room of\nPadang Panjang City Hall. The Secretary General of Kemendagri, Tomsi\nTohir Balaw, revealed that the post-Eid inflation trend at the national\nlevel from 2022 to 2026 has consistently shown a downward curve. In\nApril 2026, national inflation was recorded at 0.13 percent, lower than\nthe previous month. Conditions in Padang Panjang are in line with this\ntrend. In the first week of May 2026, the Price Development Index (IPH)\nin the city stood at 0.30 percent, which falls into the low fluctuation\ncategory. Although stable, the government remains alert to price\nincreases in several major commodities. In addition to focusing on food\nprice stability, the meeting also emphasised strengthening the integrity\nof state apparatus. The Deputy Minister of Home Affairs, Akhmad Wiyagus,\nstressed that anti-corruption education is a vital strategy in building\nhonest character from an early age. \u201cInstilling values of honesty from\nearly childhood to secondary education levels is an important step in\ncorruption prevention efforts,\u201d Akhmad emphasised. In agreement, KPK\nChairman Setyo Budiyanto added that the vision of a corruption-free\nIndonesia must be initiated from the school environment. According to\nhim, behavioural change must start from the classroom, not merely\nthrough legal actions in examination rooms or courtrooms. The launch of\nthis guide is a response to the results of the 2024 Education Integrity\nAssessment Survey (SPI), which showed a score of 69.50 out of 100.\nDeputy Minister of Home Affairs Akhmad Wiyagus inaugurated the DESLab\nBSKDN. This digital election simulation facility is projected to become\na centre for research and policy recommendations on e-voting. The\nDirector General of Village Development at Kemendagri, La Ode Ahmad P\nBolombo, emphasised that determining village boundaries is urgent to be\ncompleted soon to create legal certainty and reduce inter-village\nconflicts. The Director General of Village Development Guidance at\nKemendagri is accelerating the affirmation of village boundaries through\nthe Integrated Land Administration and Spatial Planning Programme\n(ILASPP). He assessed that Kemendagri, as the mentoring institution for\nlocal governments, should immediately coordinate with relevant local\ngovernments that have level crossings.<\/p>",
