TANGERANG - The Tangerang City Government, Banten confirmed 300 guidance and counseling (BK) teachers at the SD-SMP level as teachers with integrity who will later fill anti-corruption classes in each school.

"This is an effort to prepare an anti-corruption generation to create a clean and transparent Tangerang City," said Tangerang Mayor Arief R Wismansyah after the inauguration which is part of a series of Roadshow Bus events by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Exploring the State to Build Anti-Corruption at Car Free Day, Adipura Monument, Tangerang City, Sunday, June 12.

He explained that the teachers who were inaugurated were those who took part in training yesterday from the inspectorate on anti-corruption education. It is hoped that later it will form anti-corruption classes in each school into an anti-corruption curriculum.

"So the picture is that later we will give these children the tasks that we involve as well as their parents so that they can work together on tasks and learn together about anti-corruption so that people can be well educated on how to create an anti-corruption and integrity city," he said.

Arief added that entering the political year, the role of teachers is very important to instill and teach children the values of integrity, especially in minimizing money politics.

"The message from the KPK is that we all must support the holding of a democratic party by choosing leaders with integrity," he said.

Therefore, through this socialization, he hopes that teachers can set an example, instill and teach children to have integrity, especially parents who have the right to vote to refuse money politics.

Furthermore, Arief hopes that these activities can further increase public understanding of the importance of growing the values of integrity and the mentality of anti-corruption.

"Hopefully with this socialization activity, we can all be more courageous to be honest, have the courage to reject corrupt practices and hopefully the City of Tangerang will get more blessings and progress and benefits for all of us," he said.
