JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) reminded Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka's commitment as a candidate to be elected in the 2024 presidential election in an effort to eradicate corruption. One of them is related to strengthening the anti-corruption commission and the commitment to tighten leadership selection.

Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said the number two pair had conveyed their commitment when PAKU Integrity was present at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta on 17 January.

"Strengthening political, legal and bureaucratic reform and strengthening the prevention and eradication of corruption; strengthening the KPK and its commitment to tighten the selection of KPK leaders according to high standards, is part of the main focus of the upcoming government's vision, mission and strategy in efforts to eradicate corruption in Indonesia," Ali said in a written statement quoted on Friday, March 22.

The KPK hopes that this is not just a jargon. Ali emphasized that his institution is ready to work together to help the process.

"We are ready to synergize with all law enforcement officers and the wider community to support the fulfillment of the commitment of selected partners in strengthening law enforcement, including in eradicating corruption in Indonesia," he said.

Ali reminded that strengthening the eradication of corruption must be the focus of the new government because it will have a positive impact on the country. In addition, the long-term effects will also be felt by the community in the future.

"KPK as an independent law enforcement agency that carries out the mandate of efforts to eradicate corruption will support the programs that will be implemented by the government, especially in law enforcement and strengthening the eradication of corruption," said Ali.

"Because strengthening the eradication of corruption will have a positive impact in supporting the development and economic progress of the nation, which of course is to improve people's welfare fairly and evenly," he concluded.
