About Corruption
Corruption in Indonesia
In the 2014 Corruption Perception Index report Indonesia was ranked 107 in terms of its
cleanliness from corruption which basically means that Indonesia is still one of the most
corrupt countries in the world.
The thirty two years of the Suharto regime is particularly known as the most
highlighted case of corruption in Indonesia where, unlike in other corrupt nations,
rampant corruption seemed to go hand in hand with high growth.
Suhartos massive fortune was believed to have come from numerous companies,
monopolies and control over vast sectors of economy in particular during the three
decades in power.
Even long after the fall of the regime its signature rent-seeking practices still
characterize the Indonesian economy today.

Javanese see power as something concrete, homogeneous, constant in total
quantity, and without inherent moral implications as such
In terms of concreteness, Javanese generally believe that power is some sort of
intangible, mysterious, and divine energy as a foundation of the universe. Such
energy, despite the absence of physical evidence, is very real in the minds of
Javanese and does not originate from its users.
In terms of homogeneity, Javanese generally believe that, being a concrete energy,
all power assume the same form that originates from the same source. It does not
matter who wields it, be it a farmer or a noble, it will still be seen as the same power
by the society.
In terms of its self-limiting nature, power is perceived by Javanese as always in the
same total amount. This means that, despite being wielded by many users, the total
amount of power in the universe will never increase or decrease. The only thing that
can be changed about power is its distribution which means in order for a power
wielder to get stronger at least another power wielder must get weaker.
In terms of moral implications, the fact that power is perceived as a divine energy
emanating from a single homogeneous source makes it free of the questions of
legitimacy. This means that it does not matter if a power is based on wealth, military
force, or any other means, power will always be admitted as power.

Rationalization - Examples

Denial of Responsibility:
I think that corruption was normal because the salary of civil servants
was just not enough.
Rationalization - Examples

Narcissism is essentially a state of being the center of a loving world

Bringing down the entire structure of corruption normalization requires the destruction of its
Many small and seemingly insignificant corrupt acts may later on turn into serious offences if they are
perpetrated frequently. Periodical reviews on the existing structures and process within an organization must be
performed to ensure that no part of organizational operations constitutes corruption.
Should any part of the operation is found to be of corrupt nature, it must be erased from organizational
memory immediately. This includes identifying unofficial practices by organization members outside the formal
structure as part of daily operations.
Regardless of the resistance, routinized corrupt acts must be explicitly sanctioned so as to create deterrence
effect for other organization members.
To take down the rationalization pillar an organization needs to have means to neutralize the
various types of denials used by corruption offenders. Denial of legality problem can be
addressed with formulating explicit and detailed job descriptions as well as code of ethics so as
to avoid multiples interpretations.
Future Directions
To take down the rationalization pillar an organization needs to
have means to neutralize the various types of denials used by
corruption offenders.
Future Directions
To take down the socialization pillar an organization needs
to have means to monitor employees individual behavior.
