| Nation Building: Education System and Anti-corruption Integrity |
Page 1 of 4 Jakarta (Kompas: (23/11/07) Various selection committees’ effort to select members of commissions and other state institutions having anti-corruption integrity, being clean and honest seems to become more and more difficult in the future. Efforts have been carried out to find the proper candidate, and the result follows the patterns hereunder: First, only a few candidates enrol which showed that there are not much members of middle-class society in Indonesia who dare to show that they have integrity and have a clean track record. Second, many of the candidates are employees or state officials approaching their retirement period.
Thus, we can conclude that their main motivation is extending their activities after retiring from their previous posts. We might conclude as well that their main selling points are their professionalism; which might not always relevant with a clean, honest personality with anti-corruption integrity. Third, many applicants capitalize their self-acclamation concerning who they are and their personalities. Many of these candidates failed upon verification. Fourth, those having good integrity, clean and honest are unwilling – or very few - to apply. They are afraid to be cheated in the dirty selection process. Usually, people like them always have other better things to do. Such a rare persons are needed everywhere, not only in state commissions of institutions.
