In Indonesia? Really? In the government or private sector? Your country is not listed on the most corrupt countries list:

Here you can find Indonesia's corruption record score over the years in summary:

It takes more than just the government. The people - all the people of your country - must be so absolutely sick of it that they only vote for candidates who stand up - even just once - against corruption. We used to have a very corrupt government on both sides of parliament some decades ago. It took a long time to sort out. We're now #7 least corrupt in the world & New Zealand is world #1!

True, & that's also the point they make. My purpose is for a comparisson of countries. I'm not assuming public sector corruption follows that of the private sector either, but at least it's something to go on. There are much more corrupt countries than Indonesia. Our leaders & delegates recently met & seemed to get on okay. We trade with Indonesia quite a bit & have for some time. We also holiday there quite a lot. Or does John have some personal experiences to the contrary which he'd like to share?

They should punish the corrupt leaders, that is the only way they can stop them, and the people should not elect proven corrupt leaders.

corruption is spreading worldwide like epidemic. Controlling it by any government or international organization is not possible due to involvement of bureaucrats and politicians

I am pretty sure if people trusted more in God and followed his word there wouldn't be so many problems in the world.

I think it is so difficult, because this symptom has done for years. Corruption can stopped when leaders of official in government department avoid the corruption. If they still corrupt, the corruption cannot stopped. Because corruption laws cannot stop this disease.

Well, corruption is simply a byproduct of the sinful nature of man. We are all corrupt in some fashion. Personally I don't believe the government can do anything about it. Nor does the government have the right to do anything about it. I don't know about your country but here in the U.S. the government is the source of much of the corruption we face as a nation. The only true way to fix the problem of corruption is to change the heart of man and government doesn't have the power to do that. Only God can.

Corruption exists even way way back before and i think it will never be ceased. Maybe it can be lessen , if the goverment will impose a stricter government.
