JAKARTA - Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW) researcher Diky Anandya said, based on monitoring from his side, it was found that the three most dominant modes used by corruptors in corruption cases in Indonesia in the first semester of 2022 were found.

During the first semester of 2022, the most dominant mode used by perpetrators of corruption is misuse of the budget. Then, other modes are mark up (price inflation) and procurement of fictitious activities or projects," said Diky when he was a participant in the launch of the Corruption Eradication Trend Semester I 2022, as monitored through the YouTube channel Friends of ICW quoted by Antara, Sunday, November 20.

Furthermore, he conveyed that of the 252 cases handled by law enforcement officers during the first semester of 2022, the mode of budget abuse was the mode used by corruptors in 147 cases.

Meanwhile, price inflating mode was found in 30 cases and the procurement of fictitious activities or projects in 20 cases.

According to Diky, the three modes are often found in corruption cases related to the procurement of goods/services and the management of government budgets.

"Actually, these three modes are often found in corruption cases in the procurement of goods/services as well as the management of government budgets and this is confirmed because of the 252 cases that law enforcement officers have successfully investigated, around 53 percent or 134 cases have dimensions of procurement of goods/services," he said.

On the same occasion, Diky also conveyed that as in previous years, corruption crimes during the first semester of 2022 based on ICW monitoring on January 1 to June 30, 2022 occurred mostly in the village sector with a total of 62 cases.

"In the first semester of 2022, 62 cases of corruption were recorded with a potential state financial loss of Rp. 289 billion," he said.

He also said the trend of corruption in the village sector had increased since Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages was passed.
