JAKARTA, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) — Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto on Friday reiterated his firm commitment to fighting corruption and protecting forests across the country.
Addressing the nation ahead of Indonesia's 80th independence anniversary on August 17, the president stressed his constitutional duty to root out bribery and abuse in all organs of government.
“I have been sworn in to exercise my powers under the Constitution of our Republic of Indonesia. Therefore, I have no choice but to lead the efforts to combat corruption and abuses in all executive bodies and government agencies,” he said, noting that corruption remains the biggest problem in the country.
According to him, corrupt practices occur at all levels of bureaucracy, in all government agencies and organizations, as well as in state and regional enterprises.
“As the President of Indonesia, I have a responsibility to uphold the law for the safety of the nation. We are currently facing the reality of a massive drain on our country’s wealth,” Subianto stressed, adding that his administration must focus on finding quick and effective solutions to this fundamental problem.
