Abstract
In the General Explanation of the 2002 KPK Law, it states: Increased corruption unhindered creates disasters, not only for the national economy, but also for national and state life in general. Extensive and systematic corruption is also a violation of the social and economic rights of the community and, therefore, corruption can no longer be classified as an ordinary crime, but rather as an extraordinary crime. By any standard, Indonesia's corruption level is high. There are indications that since the fall of Suharto, overall corruption has actually increased. Regional autonomy is generally blamed for dispersing power to regional officials, many of whom are expected to exploit their offices for personal gain.
 This study uses a qualitative analysis approach that aims to analyze strategic leadership to prevent corruption in Indonesia, using Hughes's strategic leadership theory as an analysis tool.
 The results of this study are: (1) good governance requires transparency in the management of regional development using the budget originating from the APBN (state budget) and APBD (local budget); (2) strategic leaders always encourage the creation of clean bureaucracy; Organizational principles are encouraged to prohibit illegal actions against the internal environment and, in particular, external organizations will have an impact in the long term and grow the organization to be healthier; and (3) a strategic leader in running an organization must hold fast to the principle of legality and anti-corruption.
 Keywords: corruption, strategic leadership.
Highlights
Corruption, operationally defined by Transparency International (TI), "as an abuse of entrusted power for personal gain." The problem of corruption is not new, perhaps as old as the state as a political organization with the prerogative to allocate resources
Investigation of corruption activities occurs in public administration in some parts of the world, which causes poverty, child mortality, hunger, illiteracy, and so on
Extensive reform efforts have been made in the past two decades. This reform was built on the understanding that corruption is a public administration dysfunction contained in monopolies and policies, which can be overcome by encouraging accountability and transparency
Summary
Corruption, operationally defined by Transparency International (TI), "as an abuse of entrusted power for personal gain." The problem of corruption is not new, perhaps as old as the state as a political organization with the prerogative to allocate resources. Investigation of corruption activities occurs in public administration in some parts of the world, which causes poverty, child mortality, hunger, illiteracy, and so on. Corruption cannot be eradicated and continues to absorb resources from many of the world's poorest countries. The World Bank has prioritized corruption eradication policies for the development community. Extensive reform efforts have been made in the past two decades. This reform was built on the understanding that corruption is a public administration dysfunction contained in monopolies and policies, which can be overcome by encouraging accountability and transparency. Corruption devastated programs and policies aimed at reducing poverty. Fighting corruption is very important to achieving the overall mission of the World Bank on poverty alleviation
