Purging of corruption<\/p>\n
From Republika<\/p>\n
Collusion and corruption are becoming increasingly rife in our
\nbusiness practices and penetrating all walks of life. We feel
\ntheir presence in all sectors of development: banking, export and
\nimport, trade and services at all levels. Their infiltration into
\nthe bureaucracy network is also widespread. They are like an
\nepidemic. It is hard to find their roots. People are asking
\nthemselves: Is it the culture, the bureaucracy's administrative
\nsystem, the economy, politics, or purely a matter of mentality?<\/p>\n
Our anguish seems to grow with the advent of crony capitalism
\nthat gives birth to new well-planned monopolies. A combination or
\na system of fascism, capitalism and nepotism in economy, which
\nsometimes takes the guise of philanthropy. Their sole concern is
\nloyalty in order to hold on to the resources of wealth.<\/p>\n
The handling of problems of collusion and monopolies seems to
\nbe stopgap work, while the problems become increasingly urgent.
\nMany people hope that the antimonopoly law will enable the
\nauthorities to take steps. But all is still vague. The
\ncommunity's reactions are varied. Some people remain apathetic,
\nothers look forward to the implementation of such a law. Still
\nothers are against such a law. Without a legal certainty for the
\nprotection of the people's rights, collusion will keep thriving.<\/p>\n
We should all ponder what is wrong with the efforts to
\neradicate crony capitalism, monopolies and collusion.<\/p>\n
We may need another committee, that is, a national committee
\nfor the purging of collusion and monopolies. We need an
\ninstitution that is not only ready to accommodate complaints, but
\na people's council that understands the heartfelt complaints of
\nthe people.<\/p>\n
For starters, we need to see more transparent steps being
\ntaken.<\/p>\n
