Policies of Corruption Corruption as we know, is one of the most destruction problem among the world. There are some policies in each country for corruptors. In Indonesia, the policies of corruption has been written as we call it “Undang – undang Dasar”. In “Undang – undang No. 31 year of 1991” explained that corruption will bring lots of disadvantages impacts for the economic growth and development in Indonesia. For those people who did the corruption, will acquire what we usually called “tindak pidana” or punishment that given by the judge on the court room. They will get at least 4 years in jail and the longest is 20 years in jail. They also have to pay the fee at least Rp. 200.000.000,00 and the biggest fee is Rp. 1.000.000.000.000,00. The punishments power not only held by the judge but also supported by KPK (Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi). They have the rights to investigate every aspects that related to corruptions. Also, they have the rights to know all of the information about the corruptors from the “instansi” that related to the actions of corruptions. The punishments for the corruptors not only supported by the KPK but also, the citizen supported the punishments for the corruptors. Because what corruptors did also bring bad impacts for the citizen in Indonesia. To execute the “Undang – Undang Dasar” might need some money, that the “Mahmkamah Agung” has the responsibility to it. The money that came from the government’s budget. This rules have been written in pasal 33 bab VII about the financial, in “Undang – Undang Dasar No. 46 year of 2009”. Policies about corruption could also useful for citizen to prevent corruption. The prevention about corruption has been written in “Undang – Undang No. 31 year of 1999” about eradiction to corruption. Citizen have the rights to give some information about the allegation of corruption to the law enforcement. They also have the rights to say their opinions about how to prevent corruption. To do so, they need some protection from the law enforcement, that the citizen have the rights to get that. The law enforcement also will give rewards to citizen who could solve the problem how to prevent corruption (pasal 41 bab V about the role of citizen to prevent corruption). But also, the defendant have the rights to rebel the claim from the citizen with good evidence and reasons (pasal 37 bab IV). The purpose of me discussing about corruption is to prevent or to minimize the presence of corruption itself in our life. Corruption usually did by conglomarate, not by poor people. Usually, educated people do corruption, because they know how to do it by the education that they have. There are lots of reasons why people do corruption. Because they wanted more money, they wanted more high quality materials. And also, maybe they wanted to gain more power by the money that they have. Because, money can buy anything even dignity. In my opinion, people do corruption because of the environment they lived in. For example, low moral base is one of the reason why people do corruption. Once morals and integrity are abandoned then lies become the norm and the desire for personal to do more on corruption. People were suggested to do corruption. Also, they think that corruption is an easy way to get richer. Firstly we have financial corruption. One of the big problems for new entrepreneurs is that of cash flow. Consequently they are obsessive about collecting any money that is owed to them. The financial problems become worse where there is a requirement to take client's funds and hold them for some form of future payment. We also can blame the government because of their neglected on actuating the Undang – Undang Dasar abour corruption. They haven’t really stricten the rules. By knowing that the percentage of corruptors are decreasing they should do much more than just throwing them in jail. To solve this problem, in my personal opinion and from the references, I think that people should be taught more about moral, and about the consequences of corruption. Lots of people only think the result by doing corruption which is being more richer, but they don’t know what consequences will they get. Also, they should be taught about honesty at work. The managers in companies, should give the same salary to their employees. Managers also should give them some rewards if they did something more than others. For example, in tax corruption, to prevent the avoidance of paying taxes and fees, Check if appropriate fees have been paid to the land occupants with the pre-agreed amount of money or in-kind. It is necessary to check with both parties—the developer and the land occupants on their agreement and the actual fees transaction history. Also, workers should give some reports of their works to the managers, so that the company knows about all of the result of their works. Not only the actions of managers are important, also the actions of government also will affect the prevention of corruption. Government should do more rather than just throwing the corruptors in jail. Government should open more of job creation so unemployees can have jobs. Also, government should stricten the rules about corruption so people will avoid corruption. Because corruption affects the poorest the most, in rich or poor nations, though all elements of society are affected in some way as corruption undermines political development, democracy, economic development, the environment, people’s health and more.
