Ladies and Gentlemen

The way to solve the corruption is our government must be giving more attention to
laws of corruption that can be used in overcoming the problem of corruption that
occurred, including:

1. Building Strong Law Supremacy

2. Creating Real Conductivity in All Areas
3. Creating Anti-Corruption Education
4. Building Moral Education as early as Possible
5. Training on Intensive Religious Education
6. Increase public knowledge about the law
7. Clean the legal apparatus from KKN
8. Enforce the law without selective logging
9. Eliminate the bribe culture of the community

Those why we still believe that corruption is an illegal action and needs the more
attention from our government to eliminate the corruption in our country.
