Meanwhile, the Deputy Chairperson of the MUI emphasized his commitment to supporting law enforcement, especially in eradicating corruption. He emphasized that corruption is detrimental to the wider community, especially those who pay taxes with full struggle, but these funds are actually misused by irresponsible persons.
In addition to drugs and corruption, MUI also highlighted the importance of early education for the community, especially the younger generation, so as not to fall into drug abuse. MUI invites all elements of the nation to jointly fight drugs, given the condition of correctional institutions that are now experiencing overcapacity due to the large number of prisoners in drug cases.
As a concrete step, the Attorney General's Office and MUI agreed to establish closer cooperation through the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This agreement will be facilitated by the Deputy Attorney General for Intelligence (JAM INTEL) and focused on legal counseling and strengthening synergies in saving the nation from the threat of drugs and corruption.
It is hoped that this collaboration can have a positive impact on the community and strengthen fair law enforcement and integrity in Indonesia.
