KPK: The 2024 Election Will Have Integrity If Young People Are Honest
JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) reminds young people to be honest in choosing leaders during the 2024 General Election (Pemilu). They will become the largest number of voters, even reaching 60 percent according to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS).
"If 60 percent of these youths (run elections, ed) are honest and have integrity, our elections will be safe," said Deputy for Education and Community Participation at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Wawan Wardiana in a written statement, Friday, November 4.
Their integrity is considered very necessary to choose a quality leader. "Youths succeed in the democratic party by upholding the values of honesty and integrity," he said.
"With these two capitals, it is hoped that the leaders who will later be elected from the level of regional heads, members of the council, to the president are representatives of the public's need for quality leaders," continued Wawan.

Their participation to make people aware to stay away from the practice of corruption should also be done. "Because the impact of corruption is extraordinary, there is even a moral degradation that some people consider corruption to be normal," he concluded.
