JAKARTA - Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Firli Bahuri said corruption in Indonesia occurs because of a failed system, a bad system, and a weak system in an environment.

For this reason, the Deputy for Prevention of the KPK continues to work hard to improve the trade system, political system, economic system, and other systems that often lead to corruption crimes.

"The deputy for prevention of the KPK is working hard to improve the system. Corruption arises because of the system. Fail system, bad system, or weak system," Firli said in a joint hearing with Commission III of the Indonesian Parliament which was broadcast on the DPR RI YouTube account, Thursday, June 25.

Apart from taking precautions, the KPK also has other strategic approaches to eradicating corruption.

Among them is taking an anti-corruption education approach to society. In its implementation, the KPK utilizes formal and informal education networks, including from kindergarten to tertiary education levels.

The KPK, said Firli, also conducts anti-corruption education for state officials, political parties, bureaucrats, as well as State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) and Private-Owned Enterprises (BUMS).

"Because these three areas are often involved in corruption cases. We do not want and try hard so that people do not want corruption," he said.

The third approach is to take action. Firli said, the prosecution was carried out so that people did not want and fear corruption after seeing the prosecution carried out by the anti-graft agency team.

However, Firli said that his party prefers to carry out education and prevention first rather than taking action.

"If these two approaches are successful, then the prosecution will be successful. If there is a lot of action, then education and prevention will fail," he concluded.
