JAKARTA - Presidential Candidate number three, Ganjar Pranowo, admitted that he would fulfill the invitation from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to talk about anti-corruption ideas. Even Ganjar is ready if he has to argue about his vision and mission in eradicating corruption.

"So I am very happy if we can be invited and we will argue about eradicating corruption," said Ganjar to reporters at the PDIP Party School, Lenteng Agung, Jakarta, Wednesday, January 10.

Ganjar said he was not afraid to discuss corruption. Moreover, he has the slogan mboten corruption, bulging' or no corruption, not lying' which he often conveyed when he was governor of Central Java.

In fact, this slogan gave him a story of his own when he participated in the debate as a candidate for governor in 2013.

"I think for the first time, the candidates came. I remember very well the questions were interesting because in the first couple, your concept of eradicating corruption, the second (pair, red) was also asked," said Ganjar.

"When it was my turn, I wasn't asked because of the slogan'mboten korupsi, bomten ngupsi'," continued the white hair figure.

As previously reported, the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Nurul Ghufron, said that his institution would ask about the commitment of the presidential candidates in efforts to eradicate corruption in the country. They will hold an event and invite the contestants for the democratic party.

"We will invite, we will hold our own forum specifically for anti-corruption issues," Ghufron told reporters quoted on Friday, December 15.

Ghufron said this forum was different from the debate held by the General Elections Commission (KPU). However, they can convey their vision and mission.

"So the KPK will later oversee and then ensure the commitment of the presidential candidates to the corruption eradication agenda, the KPK will hold its own moments. Not a debate but," he said.
