Why Hypocrisy and Leniency Suck (More than Corruption Does)
Yesterday (Dec 9, 2009) was international anti-corruption day. Demonstrations against corruption (and corruptors) ran rampant almost in any city and little town on the Indonesian archipelago. The corruption eradication undertaking has of course been becoming the nation's huge concern particularly after the earth-shattering Century scandal involving the country's elites. Call me selfish, but I don't give the scandal damn. What they can always show to us -the citizens- is an endless supply of stomach-sickening scandals, dramatic scenes at trials, press releases full of denial and disclaimer, and piles of other dirty political maneuvers.
