Has globalization increased the risk
of corruption?
Globalization has increased the risk of corruption but has also increased the
opportunities to curb it.
What role can the media play in
tackling corruption ?
The media can serve many important functions, not just exposing corruption
but also sustaining an open and transparent flow of information and fostering a
climate of opinion that is increasingly intolerant of corruption.
What should governments do to make
anti-corruption agencies effective ?
An important factor is where the anti-corruption agency (ACA) or KPK
(Indonesian: Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi) is located in goverment; if it
reports to the office of the prime minister, for example, it can be used as
weapon against political opponents. Ideally the KPK should be a completely
independent body.
There are a number of common
options from the Reports seven-point
agenda which can make anti-corruption
agencies more effective :
. Join with international efforts
. Establish benchmarks of quality
. Strengthen the civil service
.Encourage codes of conduct in the private sector
.Establish the right to information
.Exploit new technology
.Support citizen action

Conclusion
Corruption, as we know is the criminal thing that do by a person in a certain
capacity especially with negative connotation, they do the illegal thing to make
a benefit for them self.
We can difference corruption into 2 classes. First is Petty corruption, its a kind
of corruption where did by some people in a little capacity, they do a little
corruption, but they do that many times. The other cases of corruption is State
capture refers to a situation in which private interest has effectively taken over
certain state functions, a type of corruption generally less understood by the
public or by the media.
So, corruption is an illegal thing that we couldn't do, because, with out
corruption we can be a good generation for our country. And then we can
make our country clear from corruption and make our country better.
