View all search resultsA damning report from two corruption watchdogs reveal the KPK's poor performance in the first half of this year under its new chairman, and that the antigraft body had lost public trust as a direct result of the revised KPK Law.
Former Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) chairman Busyro Muqoddas expressed support for the judges at the North Jakarta District Court to free the alleged attackers of graft buster Novel Baswedan in order to give room for a new investigation.
Finally solving the 2017 acid attack against KPK investigator Novel Baswedan has become a priority for President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo, who said on Friday he had given new National Police chief Gen. Idham Azis until December to solve the case.
According to the Chinese Communist Party’s Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI), by 2017, the anticorruption drive had investigated more than 2.7 million officials, penalized more than 1.5 million people and criminally convicted 58,000, including more than 120 “tigers” (high-ranking civilian and military officials).
Jokowi might think he has nothing to lose, as this will be his last term in office, but he would be remembered for being halfhearted about fulfilling his election campaign pledge, despite the overall success of many of his development programs.
