JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs (Menkopolhukam) Mahfud MD is of the opinion that the existence of a Law (UU) on Asset Confiscation and the Law on Restrictions on Kartal Money Transactions can minimize corruption. "The exchange of assets was proven in court that this property was, but rejected in the DPR RI. Second, the Law on Cash Expenditure Restrictions (Kartal). It's good if the cash expenditure is limited by the provisions," Mahfud said, followed by ANTARA, Wednesday, February 1.

"For example, whoever wants to make a transaction, if it reaches 100 million it must be between banks, taken from which bank, sent to which bank. People can't be corrupt if that's the case," Mahfud Hal explained when giving directions at the Meeting of the Head of Submission of Policies for the National Resilience Institute (Lemhannas) RI for Fiscal Year 2023 entitled

"The transformation of Lemhannas RI 4.0" at the Lemhannas RI Pancagatra Building, Jakarta, Wednesday. Mahfud conveyed that cash transactions that have not been limited to date are one of the loopholes for various parties to commit corruption. In fact, he added, there are various modes of corruption committed by corruptors through cash. "My experience was when the Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court (M Akil Mochtar) was arrested, now imprisoned for cash. So, he got on the plane, the judge got on the plane, made an appointment to take the same plane. sat down, the one sitting here, who wanted to bribe him and brought the same bag. Put it here, place it there. It will be right out of the bag. One of its contents, one is empty," said Mahfud. In addition to presenting the two regulations, Mahfud added that corruption in the country could be minimized by digitizing the government system.

Mahfud's statement cannot be separated from the state of Indonesia's corruption perception index which is currently experiencing a decline. He even admitted that he was hit by the decline in the index. "I was hit a bit, yesterday or two days ago, the release of the corruption perception index released by TII (Transparency International Indonesia) announced our perception index, which usually increases every year (the score) slowly increases, from (score) 30 to 39, down to a score of 38. Then yesterday, suddenly dropped to 34," said Mahfud. Thus, he assessed that it was time for corruption to be minimized, even eradicated.
