Samad pointed out that the system, officials’ roles and attitude of law enforcement agencies attitude accommodates corruption. The law doctorate from Hasanudin University said there has yet to be stern measures taken against corruptors. “China was quick to handle corruption by applying the death penalty, which has deterrent effect,” said the chief.
