Authority of the Corruption Eradication Commission After the Promulgation of Law Number 19 of 2019 About the Eradication Commission Corruption Crime

A clean government is one that operates free from collusion, corruption, and nepotism. The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has long been established to combat corruption in Indonesia. However, the amendment to the KPK Law through Law Number 19 of 2019 has sparked controversy. This amendment has reduced the KPK’s authority, and the introduction of a Supervisory Board with stronger authority than the KPK commissioners has raised concerns about weakening the commission’s ability to perform its duties. The objective of this research is to analyze the impact of changes in the KPK's authority following the issuance of Law Number 19 of 2019. This research uses a normative legal approach, applying both the statute and conceptual approaches. The legal materials are processed using descriptive legal analysis to examine the implications of the legal changes. The findings reveal significant changes in the KPK’s authority between Law Number 30 of 2002 and Law Number 19 of 2019. The study concludes that the enhanced authority of the Supervisory Board has negatively impacted the effectiveness of the KPK in fulfilling its responsibilities, raising concerns about its ability to optimally combat corruption. The implications of this research suggest that the reduction in the KPK’s authority and the increased role of the Supervisory Board may hinder efforts to eradicate corruption, thus affecting the overall integrity of governance in Indonesia.

An analysis of traditional Chinese thought of “governing by moral force”

The traditional Chinese thought of “governing by moral force”emphasizes that moral education is the foundation of governing a country, and requires the rulers to set an example, be strict with themselves, be clean and honest, and establish a clean and self-disciplined image to win the trust and support of the people. “Governing by moral force”is not only the way to govern the country, but also the theoretical basis for building a harmonious society. It still serves as a reference for the construction of the Party conduct and clean government and the improvement of people’s livelihood in the new era.

Research on the Value of Integrating Integrity Culture into the Teaching of Ideological and Political Courses in Colleges and Universities

In the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out the need to strengthen the construction of a clean and honest culture in the new era, educate and guide party members and cadres to enhance their consciousness of not wanting corruption, and to be honest and clean in their conduct and work.[1]As an important place for cultural inheritance and development, universities shoulder the glorious mission of cultivating talents for the Party and the country, and are an important battlefield for promoting the construction of Party conduct and clean governance. Strengthening the research on the rich ideological connotation and positive value of clean culture in universities has important theoretical and practical significance for absorbing the essence of clean culture, further developing and utilizing its modern cultural theoretical value. The integration of a culture of integrity into universities and the teaching of ideological and political courses is an important measure for universities to lead campus culture, and it is also a necessary path to promote the optimization and construction of a culture of integrity in universities. Especially at present, universities must steadfastly promote the construction of Party conduct and clean governance, as well as the fight against corruption, and strive to "build universities into model places of stability and unity." [2] Strengthening the integration of clean culture into the teaching of ideological and political courses in universities is conducive to cultivating students' integrity and self-discipline, inheriting excellent traditional Chinese culture, and creating and promoting a good trend of advocating integrity and resisting corruption. It is also a powerful driving force for promoting the construction of a clean campus, which requires long-term efforts and unremitting efforts.

Anti-Corruption Efforts in Regional Police Departments: The Role of Regional Inspectorate Supervision Based on Justice Values

This study explores how effective oversight can enhance the utilization of state apparatus for achieving good and clean governance, specifically focusing on the role of regional inspectorates in preventing corruption within regional police departments. The study aims to: 1) analyze why current regulations regarding the regional inspectorate's role in corruption prevention are not based on justice values; 2) identify challenges in these regulations; and 3) propose a reconstruction of the regulations to align with justice values. Using a constructivist paradigm, a socio-legal approach, and descriptive research methods, the study relies on secondary data sources, including primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. Data collection is conducted through a literature review, and qualitative analysis is employed for data interpretation. The findings reveal that the current regulation is not justice-aligned due to the supervisory function of the Regional Inspectorate (Itwasda) being under the authority of the Regional Police Chief (Kapolda), rather than the National Police Chief (Kapolri). This structure limits the effectiveness of oversight and suggests the need for a direct reporting line to National Police Chief. Challenges in the existing framework include a lack of specific legal guidelines governing the inspectorate's role in corruption prevention and insufficient synergy between organizational sections and Supervision Inspectorate. Furthermore, there is a cultural reluctance to report corruption. The study proposes reconstructing the regulation to ensure a justice-based framework, including normative revisions to relevant laws and regulations, such as Law No. 20 of 2001 on the Amendment of Law No. 31 of 1999 on Corruption Eradication, and Indonesian National Police Regulation No. 14 of 2018. This reconstruction aims to establish a clearer, more effective oversight mechanism that enhances the inspectorate's role in corruption prevention.

Practical exploration of state-owned enterprises to promote anti-corruption and clean government under the new situation

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee has attached great importance to the construction of party style and clean government, but under the new situation, corruption cases in state-owned enterprises are still relatively frequent, which affects the smooth operation of social economy, so it is imperative to clarify the problem of corruption in state-owned enterprises and analyze the causes of corruption in state-owned enterprises, and it is very necessary to further explore the path of anti-corruption and clean government construction in China's state-owned enterprises under the new situation.

How Does Low-Carbon Financial Policy Affect Corporate Green Innovation?—Re-Examination of Institutional Characteristics, Influence Mechanisms, and Local Government Behavior

This paper employs a propensity score matching approach to construct a control group and estimate the impact of the CETS pilot policy, a low-carbon financial policy, on corporate green innovation and its impact mechanism in a difference-in-difference manner. The results show that the CETS pilot policy has a significantly positive effect on corporate green innovation. The higher the penalty degree and the carbon price, the more obvious the promotion of the green innovation of pilot enterprises. The mechanism test shows that the improvement of corporate green innovation is mainly due to the incentive effect rather than the anti-driving effect of the CETS pilot policy, that is, the policy promotes corporate green innovation by providing innovation resources and enhancing the willingness to innovate. Further analysis shows that only in regions where local governments have less competitive pressure can the CETS pilot policy effectively promote enterprise innovation resources and that a close and clean government–business relationship can help strengthen the promotion effect of the CETS pilot policy on the willingness of enterprises to innovate. Furthermore, this paper introduces its theoretical framework as a strategic tripod to explore the friction in the process of the CETS pilot policy affecting corporate green innovation from the perspective of the industry environment and corporate resources. This research shows that a lack of industry green technology and corporate human capital may hinder the positive impact of the CETS pilot policy on corporate green innovation. Finally, this study found that the CETS pilot policy has no significant impact on the quality of corporate green innovation, and the lack of industry green technology and corporate human capital may hinder the CETS pilot policy from improving the quality of corporate green innovation.

To Watch the Watch-dog of Public Finance


 The Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) is one of the most important constitutional authorities. The CAG is to audit all receipts and expenditures of the governments and to report their findings to the Parliament/Assembly for their accountability. The Constitution and CAG’s Act, 1971 provides total functional freedom to CAG to better serve the objective of public audit; what, when, how, and how much to audit are their prerogatives. All the stakeholders, from the Parliament and Assembly to the common people, can know only what is disclosed in these audit reports. Entrusting the entire audit process to one person without any monitoring mechanism may lead to below average performance or deliberate omission to do their mandated duties. The decreasing number of audit reports in recent years, more focus on administrative audit and evaluation of performance under the pretext of value addition/ aiding for better governance, opaqueness in non-publishing of some audit reports, less coverage of audit, and availability of less resources for audit indicate that the performance of the institution of CAG is not at the expected level. Evolving a system for annual reporting of the audit activities of CAG to the Parliament, without curtailing CAG’s independent functioning, is an immediate need for the accrual of the benefit of public audit; ensuring clean governance without leakage and misuse of public money.

VIOLATION OF ETHICS BY PUBLIC OFFICIALS IN RELATION TO CORRUPTION CASES

The public ethics of state officials in the administration of clean government holds an important position and role as a guide for good behavior in carrying out their duties. The occurrence of political corruption is not solely attributed to the extent of authority possessed but is also rooted in the violation of the ethics of state officials. This study employs qualitative research methods and a literature approach to explore law violations stemming from breaches of state officials' ethics, focusing on the Hambalang Political Corruption case handled by the KPK. The investigation delves into how violations of state officials' ethics transpire, originating from both the executive and legislative branches.The breach of state officials' ethics in this case is linked to the struggle for interests in securing funds to support a candidate for the general chairmanship of a political party. Beyond implicating the executive and legislature, the corruption also involves the private sector. The manipulation of legal loopholes in preparing the APBN is exploited to inflate the value of the Hambalang project, resulting in substantial budgets, profits, and an escalation of corrupted funds. The case study reveals ethical violations by state officials, characterized by dishonest behavior, data manipulation, and a lack of transparency to secure approval for the Hambalang project. These ethical transgressions are coupled with legal violations, ultimately eroding public trust in endeavors to establish a corruption-free government, particularly concerning officials affiliated with political parties.
