"Some of the findings, the Police managed to overtake the KPK, I think this is interesting if it is examined specifically. Does it have anything to do with the revision of the KPK Law? Does it have something to do with some recent events, such as the new KPK chairman. What is clear is that recently the position of the KPK has decreased, overtaken by the National Police," Yunarto said when presenting the results of the virtual survey, quoted by Antara, Monday, December 20.

Chartapolitika further explored the findings and found that the majority of respondents who voted satisfied came from areas that gave the largest votes to President Joko Widodo and Vice President Ma'ruf Amin during the 2019 General Election (Pemilu) namely East Java, Central Java. , Yogyakarta, Bali, West Nusa Tenggara, and East Nusa Tenggara.
