Why only Ginandjar?

From Tempo

Under heavy pressure from students and others, law enforcers have shown that they are able to take bold action against corruptors. One such move is detaining former minister of mines and energy Ginandjar Kartasasmita at the Attorney General's Office.

However, it is unfair if only Ginandjar was to blame. Corruption, collusion and nepotism would not have occurred if his business colleagues hadn't had their share (in the form of kickbacks) in the multibillion rupiah worth of contracts.

The law enforcers should have promptly investigated Ginandjar's cronies and the corruption tainted-cases which involve deals worth trillions of rupiah. These people have clearly looted the country. The authorities must immediately investigate all private companies linked to Ginandjar before the companies' directors and employees divide the "profits", or change their company's name to evade legal suits.

Those who have knowledge regarding these crimes and want to see the people who have plundered the country brought to justice, should be willing to give accurate information if requested.
