Abstract

The defense sector will always be vulnerable to corruption, due to risks from high levels of secrecy, complex technical procurement, and exploitation of the hierarchical nature of the military. This study aims to provide a description of the significance of the country's largest defense allocation (in millions of US$ at current prices and exchange rates) to corruption. The approach used in this research is descriptive quantitative. The data used uses the country's CPI (Corruption Perception Index) issued by TII and the country's defense allocation issued by SIPRI. Data analysis used the method of testing the hypothesis through the khai-square distribution. This study concludes that the number of countries with CPI below the average of the 50 countries with the largest defense allocation (in millions of US$ at current prices and exchange rates) is not constant and therefore the cause is a significant factor. meaning that it can be interpreted that countries with large defense allocations tend to have a CPI below the average.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the policy of determining military budget size as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and government spending in countries in Asia, Oceania, and Africa. The approach used in this study is descriptive quantitative. The data used are national defense allocations published by SIPRI. Data analysis used a hypothesis test with a Wilcoxon rank sum. This study concluded that for hypothesis testing with a Wilcoxon rank sum and using the same sample size and no more than 20 samples, the policy of determining military budget size as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Asian and African countries differs. For testing with a different sample size and no more than 20 samples, the policy of determining military budget size as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Asian and African countries is the same. Based on hypothesis testing with a Wilcoxon rank sum and using a sample size greater than 20 samples, the policy of determining military budget size as a percentage of government spending in Asian, Oceania, and African countries differs.
