JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) hopes that state officials or administrators will increase their integrity. Do not let people be affected because they are corrupt.

This was conveyed by the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK Johanis Tanak during the KPK Bus Roadshow at the Riau Governor's Square, Monday, September 25.

"No state officials should take money illegally. Because it is state money which is people's money. This certainly makes people hurt," Johanis said in a written statement, Tuesday, September 26.

"Improving integrity, continued Johanis, also needs to improve the character of the nation. We must implement efforts to avoid corruption," he said.

Not only that, the KPK also reminded that integrity must be maintained by all parties, including the community. One way to do this is by rejecting the politics of money that often occurs ahead of the general election (election).

In fact, said Tanak, the public is asked to be brave enough to report if there are candidates who try to buy their votes.

"This practice can make candidates for regional heads corrupt when they are in office because from the start they are no longer pro-people," he said.

In addition, all parties must remember that money politics can cause high political costs. Johanis said, this condition allows elected officials to practice corruption to return capital.

"The practice of money politics that is often found at that time can make political costs expensive, and cause the democratic system to be inaccuracies and have the potential for corruption," concluded Tanak.
