A review of corruption in public procurement in Indonesia

Abstract

The implementation of a good State is one of the benefits of preventing corruption, meaning that Indonesia’s funds and natural resources are fully managed for the interests and prosperity of the people. The public understands corruption as something detrimental to state finances. In Law 31 : 1999 in conjunction with Law 20 : 2001 concerning Eradication of Corruption Crime there are 30 types of corruption. One of the seven Corruption Crime groups is gratification. Two of the seven principles of gratification control are transparency and accountability. The principle of openness is reflected in the mechanism for reporting on receipt of gratuities to the Corruption Eradication Commission. This study attempts to identify various aspects associated with the potential occurrence of corruption in the procurement of Government sector infrastructure projects based on a literature review through existing legislation in Indonesia. The results of the study are expected to be able to find indicators as potential corruption in public infrastructure procurement.
