Corruption becomes enemy of almost countries in this world, included Indonesia. It happens in government, corporate and also non-government sectors. According to Transparency International, Indonesia was ranked at 107 of the 177 states. By looking Corruption Perception Index (CPI), Indonesia collects 34 point. It means that Indonesia has a low stage, in another word; Indonesia belongs to group of more corrupted country. I believe that this problem causes national development that becomes slow. Present of the corruption eradication commission (KPK) is a new hope for this country.

So far, KPK had covered many corruption cases which most of them could imprison officers who caught corruption. In 2012, KPK succeeded in arresting firstly Inspector General of Polri, Djoko Susilo and Minister of Youth and Sport, Andi Mallarangeng. A year later, KPK could arrest two other ministers: Minister of Religion, Suryadharma Ali and Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Jero Wacik. Moreover, KPK also succeeded in president of parties’ corruption demolition. They were Lutfi Hasan Ishaq as a President of Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), and Anas Urbaningrum as a president of Democratic Party at that time. The next success, KPK had arrested Head of SKK Migas, Rudi Rubiandini at August 13rd, also the former head of Constitutional Court, Akil Mochtar. Simultaneously, The Queen of Banten, Ratu Atut Chosiyah, was also arrested.

Because of those achievements, KPK got Asia’s most prestigious reward Ramon Magsaysay 2013 as an anti-corruption board which is independent and dare to tackle many stakeholders. The representative of Philippine, Miss Rosario Aguinaldo said that KPK became the first institution which awarded by The Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation at July, 23rd in Philippine.

Besides eradicating corruption cases, KPK also focuses on prevention of the children. KPK volunteers educate anti-corruption for them. Hopefully children could anticipate kinds of corruption. This aim to eliminate corruption behavior which always be shown at television or news every day. It is very danger for the growing children.
