My salutations to Agus Condro! I can’t understand what that person is thinking (well, I wouldn’t understand what somebody is thinking if he/she received a bribe of 500 million rupiah and he/she voluntarily reported his/her actions to an official institute), at least he helped fight corruption in our rotten nation. Whatever the reason (he said his conscience led him to do it), he’s one of a few people who’s brave enough to admit his mistakes, though he very well knew it will cost him his position in Indonesian politics.
There has been too much corruption happening in Indonesia since Soeharto’s era.Nevertheless I find the President’s attempt to reduce corruption through the Corruption Eradication Commission (usu. known as Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi, abbreviated KPK) as something we should be proud of. The KPK is doing their job quite nicely and it’s showing progress. Though some people are still condemning that the KPK is not doing their job, I’d say it’s pretty nice that the President is seeing corruption as an enemy to fight, and he’s showing effort to fight it.
