Based on a survey by the Kurious-Katadata Insight Center (KIC), Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs Mahfud MD is considered the figure most capable of eradicating corruption in Indonesia.
33.4% of respondents chose Mahfud MD. This figure even surpasses several prospective presidential candidates (bacapres) such as Ganjar Pranowo, Prabowo Subianto, and Anies Baswedan.
The PDI-P's bacapres, Ganjar Pranowo, was ranked second, chosen by 32.5% of respondents. Gerindra's bacapres, Prabowo Subianto, was also chosen by 32.5% of respondents, while Nasdem's bacapres, Anies Baswedan, was chosen by 21.2% of respondents.
Furthermore, 16.6% of respondents chose Minister of SOEs Erick Thohir. This was followed by former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil (16.4%), Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno (9.8%), and Chairman of the Democratic Party Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (8%).
Meanwhile, a smaller proportion of respondents chose East Java Governor Khofifah Indar Parawansa and Chairman of the PKB Muhaimin Iskandar, as shown in the graph above.
The Kurious-KIC survey was conducted on 933 respondents spread across various regions in Indonesia, with 51.2% female respondents and 48.8% male respondents.
The majority of respondents were from Java Island (excluding Jakarta), at 62.1%, followed by respondents from DKI Jakarta (15%) and Sumatra Island (13.3%). Respondents from Sulawesi, Kalimantan, Bali-Nusa, and Maluku-Papua ranged from 0.2% to 3.5%.
Most respondents were from the 25-34 age group (36.3%), followed by the 35-44 age group (28.9%) and the 45-54 age group (16.9%).
Data collection was conducted from August 22-29, 2023, using the computer-assisted web interviewing (CAWI) method, with a margin of error of approximately 3.2% and a 95% confidence level.
Public perception of corruption in Indonesia is recorded as worsening. This is based on a Transparency International (TI) report showing that Indonesia's Corruption Perception Index (CPI) was 34 points in 2022, down four points from the previous year.
This is the lowest index since 2014, the first year Joko Widodo (Jokowi) served as president. This decline also caused Indonesia's ranking to drop to 110th out of 180 countries in 2022. In the previous year, Indonesia was ranked 96th.
