War on corruption

War on corruption

From Bisnis Indonesia

Some believe that the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK)
and the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) set up General Elections
Commission (KPU) member Mulyana W. Kusumah, which led to his
arrest on charges of bribery.

Others expect the KPK to continue its tasks until the case is
thoroughly settled through the courts.

The point is that the war on corruption must go on, because
the nation is facing a moral crisis, manifesting itself
particularly in graft.

In dealing with the case, the views of legal experts should
serve as input for the KPK and the BPK. At least the examination
of KPU officials responsible for expenses indicates a proper
response to such input.

The public should not be fooled by high-level deals involving
KPU and BPK officials that lead to positive KPU project audit
results. All irregularities should be revealed so that no more
ordinary people are made scapegoats.
