JAKARTA - Chairman of the Central Java Regional Representative Board of PDI Perjuangan (DPD PDIP) Bambang Wuryanto was surprised by the arrest of the Governor of South Sulawesi Nurdin Abdullah by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).

The reason is, Nurdin Abdullah in Bambang's eyes was a polite figure. In fact, he thought that Nurdin Abdullah was a good person.

"To my knowledge, the Governor of South Sulawesi is a polite governor, often gives lectures, according to my 'feeling' I am a good person," said Bambang Wuryanto, who is familiarly called Bambang Pacul after a series of PDIP 48th Anniversary events at the PDIP Central Java DPD office, Semarang, as reported by Antara, Sunday, 28 February.

However, Bambang Pacul agrees that being polite and kind is not enough in the world of politics. Must also be supported by high integrity.

"A good person in politics is not enough, sometimes he gets power, sometimes he forgets, it can also be targeted by other people," said Bambang.

Bambang previously instructed party cadres, especially those who became regional heads, to put a brake on greed related to efforts to prevent corruption.

"Remind yourself of greed and internalize the values of Pancasila. If it can 'match' I think corruption will be decreased," said Bambang.

According to the Head of the PDI-P Election Winning Division, the most important thing in preventing criminal acts of corruption is the development of human character.

A good character, he said, would understand that it is wrong to take someone else's rights and if he commits a criminal act of corruption it means taking people's rights.

"So if corruption takes away the rights of others, and in Pancasila, it is called as unfair thought, and the actions are less civilized," he said.
