JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) reminded the public not to receive money from candidates who contested the 2024 General Election. Anti-corruption prevention is considered useless if there is still someone who wants to buy his voice.

"Whatever the KPK does is very dependent on the community. Do not let us scream, there should be no money politics, but it turns out that the community also accepts (money, ed)," said KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri to reporters on the Indonesian KPK YouTube show, Thursday, December 8.

Firli said the KPK had tried to prevent fraudulent practices during the 2024 General Election. Among other things, organizing Smart Political Integrity (PCB) activities that were followed by political parties to form a Political Party Integrity System (SIPP).

In the program, it is hoped that political parties will no longer cheat. However, the practice of buying and selling people's voices can still occur if there is no awareness from all parties.

"There is one term that we know very well the vox populi vox dei, the voice of the people of the voice of God," he said.

"But the fact is that the voices (people are still, red) are sold. Even though we admit that the voice of the people is the voice of God, that's actually not allowed to be sold," continued Firli.

Furthermore, Firli reminded that no parties should take the opportunity to gain personal interests. There should be no buying and selling in any decisions of political parties.

"We have conveyed it to the parties, especially political parties, for example buying and selling recommendations, buying and selling registrations. (Not, red) there is a price for goods that does not exist," he concluded.
