Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW) reported 791 corruption cases in Indonesia throughout 2023. These cases involved 1,695 suspects and resulted in a total state loss of Rp28.4 trillion.

By sector, the highest number of corruption cases occurred in villages, with 187 cases. The state losses from corruption in this sector amounted to Rp162.25 billion.

ICW assessed that the high number of corruption cases in villages is inseparable from the enactment of Law No. 6 of 2014 concerning Villages, which includes village fund allocations.

These funds are intended for equitable distribution of welfare in villages. However, without the principles of transparency, participation, and accountability, village funds are feared to become a breeding ground for corruption.

There are a total of 75,265 villages in Indonesia. ICW considers corruption cases in villages to be the tip of the iceberg.

“It is important to emphasize that this could be the tip of the iceberg; it is suspected that other cases in the village sector have not been uncovered by law enforcement,” wrote ICW in its report published on Sunday (May 19, 2024).

The next highest number of corruption cases was in the government sector, with 108 cases. The total state losses amounted to Rp630.83 billion.

ICW detailed that corruption in the government sector is divided into three sub-sectors: government infrastructure, revenue budget, and expenditure budget.

Corruption cases were also reported in the utilities sector (103 cases), education (59 cases), health (44 cases), and natural resources (39 cases).

Meanwhile, corruption in other sectors recorded less than 30 cases throughout last year, as shown in the attached graph.
