Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD was hit after he found out that Indonesia's corruption perception index (IPK) or corruption perception index (CPI) had decreased. This figure usually increases but he said, it actually declined in 2022 to four points.
"Yes, it was hit but I thought it would be crowded," said Mahfud in Jakarta, Wednesday, February 1.
Even so, Mahfud said the score was only a matter of perception. Moreover, recently many hand arrest operations (OTT) have been carried out by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).
Thus, this bad perception could arise. "It's not a matter of whether there's more corruption or not," said the former Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court (MK).
"But that perception is getting worse," he continued.
Indonesia's GPA has dropped four points from 38 to 34. This assessment was conveyed by Transparency International Indonesia (TII).
"Indonesia's CPI in 2022 is at a score of 34 on a scale of 100 and is ranked 110 out of 180 countries surveyed. This score has dropped four points from 2021 and is the most drastic decline since 1995," said Deputy Transparency International Indonesia (TII) Wawan Suyatmiko in Jakarta, Tuesday, January 31.
There are three data sources that have decreased compared to the previous year, namely PRS which slumped 13 points; IMD World Competitiveness chance which fell 5 points; and PERC Asia which fell by 3 points.
Furthermore, there are three sources of data that have stagnation, namely the Global Insight, Bertelsmann Transformation Index, and the Economist Intelligence Unit. While the ones that have increased are the World Justice Project Rule of Law Index and Varieties of Democracy Project (VDem).
With a GPA of 34, Indonesia is now below Timor Leste and Vietnam which got a score of 42. Meanwhile, for Southeast Asia, Singapore is a country that is considered least corrupt with a score of 83.
