LSI Survey: Civil Servants Hesitant to Report Corruption Due to Fear
- A Small
- A Medium
- A Bigger
Civil Servants (PNS) at both central and regional levels admit to being hesitant to report corrupt practices within their respective institutions. This is especially true for cases involving abuse of authority or position.
The majority of these PNS fear that reporting such cases would lead to problems for themselves. This was stated by 29.6% of respondents in a survey conducted by the Indonesian Survey Institute (LSI). Meanwhile, never having reported a case before (13.6%) and the complicated reporting process (7.5%) further contribute to the reluctance to report.
Furthermore, the belief that reports will not be followed up increases PNS hesitation to report abuse of authority to the Inspectorate General/Regional Inspectorate. This statement was expressed by 6.4% of respondents. Another 5.3% felt they lacked the authority to report.
