Susno Duadji No longer Kabareskrim

Susno Duadji, the ‘mastermind’ of Police vs KPK brouhaha finally fired from his current position as Kabareskrim (chief detective). Indonesian officials still don’t have I-am-responsible-I-resign mentality like in Japan. You should push them hard to make their superior sack them.

Indonesia’s chief of detectives, whose role in a corruption scandal sparked a public outcry, has been moved aside to a “non-job”, a police spokesman said on Tuesday.

The scandal, which arose from a power struggle between the country’s respected Corruption Eradication Commission, or KPK, and other law enforcement agencies, has forced President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to promise he will address legal reform.

Such reform is seen as crucial for curbing graft, attracting investment, and lifting growth.

Susno Duadji, chief of detectives in the national police, was one of several officials allegedly involved in an attempt to frame two deputy chiefs at the KPK.

In Korea and Japan, people think very very highly of their dignity and self-esteem. In Indonesia, we think the same way, too. But how they and we maintain dignity and self-esteem seems to be absolutely different.

Look at how the late South Korean president Roh Moo-Hyun and our former president Soeharto dealt with their pre and post-power syndrome. I’m not saying committing suicide (Roh was jumping into a ravine) is advisable, but at the very least he asked for apology for any misdeed and wrongdoings he did to Korean people. Did Soeharto ever voluntarily asked for any of Indonesian apology, even by leaving some brief note like what Roh did?

Regardless of how huge someone’s mistake is, being able to admit publicly that s/he is wrong and thus ready for any consequences coming after the confession are quite an accomplishment. I respect someone with that outstanding audacity as our entire dignity as an individual is at a high stake once we admit we’re wrong,especially after we’ve wronged many people just like what a public official may do when they’re on duty.

It takes a human being to make mistakes but it takes a saint to sincerely ask for others’ forgiveness.
