JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) reminds officials not only to work to find wealth. They must return to their original goal, namely to become servants for the community and state. "If the goal of becoming an official is wealth, then let's return it to its original destination. Because actually being an official is to become a servant of the state and a servant of the people," said KPK Deputy Chair Nurul Ghufron in a written statement, Friday, September 1. He reminded no officials should take advantage of their positions for personal or group interests. The deviations they made, continued Ghufron, were seen by God even though they were not caught by law enforcement officials. Ghufron also remembers that the officials are those chosen by the people. So, the existing mandate must be carried out as well as possible. "We hope that the leaders who have been elected, not only by the Indonesian people but are also given the opportunity by Allah SWT, whether he is able to become a brightness or vice versa. This is the time to decide," he said. Furthermore, Ghufron also asked these officials to eradicate corruption in their area. There are a number of steps that can be taken, including paying attention to the Monitoring Center For Prevention (MCP). MCP, said Ghufron, is a form of the KPK making improvements to the system and governance. Thus, regional heads can use this figure to maintain integrity in their regions. "Monitoring Center for Prevention (MCP) is part of the system improvement. One of them is in the use of the budget," he concluded.
