“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

The Time for Talk Is Over, SBY Says on Anti-Graft Day

In his International Anti-Corruption Day speech on Friday, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said the government would engage more with antigraft activists to plot the best way to rid the country of corruption.

“I will not give any more speeches. What I said at the Anti-Corruption Day celebration was enough,” Yudhoyono said at a ceremony in Semarang, which was attended by top antigraft activists. “Now, I want input from all of you so that efforts to prevent and eradicate corruption become more successful.”

Among those at the ceremony were Indonesia Corruption Watch chairman Danang Widoyoko, Transparency International Indonesia secretary general Teten Masduki and Alexander Lay of the Indonesian Legal Roundtable.

Yudhoyono said the government was also pushing for more bilateral agreements to allow the country to extradite corruption suspects and reclaim stolen assets stashed overseas.

“Indonesia does not want countries to become safe havens for corrupt Indonesians,” he said.

Justice Minister Amir Syamsuddin said that after the 2004 presidential instruction on the acceleration of corruption eradication was issued, Indonesia had enjoyed steady success in ridding the country of graft.

Since 2005, he said, the National Police have handled 1,961 corruption cases, saving more than Rp 679 billion ($75.4 million) in state losses.

The minister also applauded the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for successfully prosecuting 196 cases since its establishment in 2003.

More than Rp 800 billion in compensation and fines was gained from cases prosecuted by the KPK, as well as another Rp 151 trillion from the organization’s graft prevention efforts, according to Amir.

Not everything, however, was so rosy. Amir said more than 1,000 corruption cases had been dropped by the Attorney General’s Office in the past seven years. Since 2004, he said, the AGO has handled 8,394 cases, but only 6,831 have made it to prosecution.

Although the AGO managed to save more than Rp 13 trillion in stolen state assets since 2004, he said, that figure would have been higher if it took more cases to court and won.

Yudhoyono said Indonesia’s anticorruption efforts had helped lift the country’s economy, which has grown from Rp 500 trillion in 2004 to Rp 1,200 trillion in 2011.

While the all the figures offered by Amir and Yudhoyono make it sound like the country is making real headway in fighting corruption, not all of the numbers could be immediately verified.

Yudhoyono’s speech came after Transparency International Indonesia on Thursday criticized the government for failing to fight corruption.

In the group’s latest Corruption Perception Index, Indonesia improved slightly from 2.8 to 3.0, with 10 being the least corrupt. TI

Indonesia’s president, Natalia Soebagjo, dismissed the improvement as “insignificant.”

Indonesia aims to get at least a 5.0 in the 2014 Transparency survey, but Indonesian Institute of Sciences researcher Syamsuddin Haris said it should lower its goal.

Syamsuddin said the House of Representatives’ decision to select a relatively unknown lawyer, Abraham Samad, to chair the KPK was a political one.

“[Samad’s appointment] is a product of political compromise,” he said. “I suspect he was chosen because he is easier to tame than the other candidates.”

ICW deputy chairman Adnan Topan Husodo also criticized Abraham’s pledge to settle within a year cases left unfinished by the previous KPK leadership.

“This is too big of a promise,” he said. “Cases like Century and Nazaruddin will not be resolved in one year. The House is naive if it believes this because the KPK leadership is collective, so he has to deal with other KPK commissioners in setting KPK policy.”

In Malang, East Java, hundreds of students from Brawijaya University were collecting coins for Abraham, who promised to quit the KPK if he failed to keep his promise to resolve the cases.

“These coins will be his pocket money … if in one year he is not able to live up to his promise,” said the university’s student body president, Arief Budi Laksono.
