JAKARTA - The National Awakening Party (PKB) said it wants democracy in the country to be far from corrupt practices. Moreover, the 2024 General Election (Election) will soon be held.

This was conveyed by Deputy Chairperson of PKB Ida Fauziyah after participating in a prevention activity entitled Smart Politics with Integrity (PCB) held by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) today, Tuesday, July 26.

"We want the practice of democracy in Indonesia, especially ahead of the 2024 General Election. We want the democratic process to run without corruption," Ida told reporters at the ACLC KPK Building, Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, Tuesday, July 26.

He believes the lectures given in the PCB activity will make PKB cadres avoid corrupt practices. Moreover, 80 people participated in this event.

"We really appreciate the activities carried out by the KPK today because this is a process for early prevention of corrupt practices," said Ida.

"I believe that the contribution of political parties to this prevention is very effective in building a democracy without corruption in Indonesia," he continued.

Furthermore, Ida also said that this kind of activity needs to be done. "Because political parties are a source of recruitment for political positions," said the Minister of Manpower.
