This article examines the legal framework of gratification reporting under Articles 12B and 12C of Indonesia’s Anti-Corruption Law through the lens of substantive justice. The law exempts public officials from criminal liability if they report gratification to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) within 30 days, a provision intended to promote transparency but often exploited as a loophole to evade punishment. Using a normative legal method with a statutory approach and case analysis, the research highlights how this mechanism contradicts substantive criminal law and undermines the moral foundation of justice. Drawing on the theories of John Rawls, Amartya Sen, and Ronald Dworkin, the analysis shows that while the provision reflects formal justice, it fails to deliver substantive justice by disproportionately favoring those with legal knowledge and institutional power. The research concludes that Article 12C should be revised to require voluntary reporting before public or law enforcement awareness and within a stricter seven-day window, ensuring greater alignment with both formal and substantive justice.

This paper analyzes the actions of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) in issuing a Mining Operation Permit to PT Tambang Mas Sangihe as a criminal act of corruption. Based on the Jakarta High Administrative Court (PTTUN) Decision No. 140/B/2022/PT.TUN.JKT, the permit was proven to violate several legal provisions and was subsequently revoked. The issuance of the permit without proper legal basis caused environmental damage and loss of natural resources, which form part of state finances. These actions indicate that the Minister of ESDM abused his authority to benefit a corporation, resulting in losses to state finances or the economy, as regulated in Article 3 of Law No. 31 of 1999 on the Eradication of Corruption. This study employs a normative legal research method using conceptual and case approaches, supported by primary and secondary legal materials.

Village fund corruption remains a critical issue within Indonesia’s decentralized governance system. Although Law No. 6 of 2014 on Villages and Law No. 23 of 2014 on Regional Government establish frameworks for transparency and accountability, their implementation has not effectively curbed corrupt practices. This study analyzes the effectiveness of these regulations in preventing village fund corruption and proposes legal strategies to enhance oversight. Using a normative juridical approach supported by empirical data from Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW), the research finds that weak vertical supervision by the Regional Inspectorate, limited community participation, and inadequate administrative capacity among village officials undermine regulatory effectiveness. To address these challenges, the study recommends strengthening participatory audits, adopting context-appropriate digital transparency tools, reforming the institutional role of the Village Consultative Body (BPD), and enforcing stricter legal sanctions. A comprehensive and participatory legal approach is essential to reduce corruption and promote sustainable rural governance.

Corruption prevention in Indonesia remains weak due to inadequate enforcement of asset disclosure obligations for state officials. Although asset reporting is vital for transparency and accountability, it functions mainly as a formal compliance tool without strong sanctions. Comparative experiences from Denmark and Spain show that effective prevention requires comprehensive legal frameworks combining administrative and criminal penalties to ensure compliance and deter corruption. Indonesia’s current framework, limited to administrative sanctions, lacks coercive power. Strengthening it through explicit legal provisions aligned with international standards such as the UNCAC and OECD guidelines is essential to enhance accountability and reinforce corruption prevention.

This paper assesses the efficacy of Nigeria's anti-corruption institutions—the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission—in curbing bribery activities that are well-controlled at all levels. Each institution plays its major role in making sure the purposes of its establishment are well met. However, the impression of corruption persists in Nigeria, damaging the nation's reputation and fostering an image of profound moral decay. Findings show that, since 1999, successive Nigerian administrations have sought novel anti-corruption measures. The Transparency International Corruption Report ranges from 2020 to 2023; Nigeria's ranks were between 136 and 140. Such records indicate that the war against corruption is a limited in progress. The current position of Nigeria ranks 140th out of 180 countries, with a score of 26/100, demonstrating that corruption remains a significant issue despite the presence of numerous anti-corruption agencies. This article employs qualitative and quantitative methods to analyse existing data and assess the effectiveness of Nigerian institutions in combating bribery. Such methodology assists in identifying gaps in enforcement, institutional weaknesses, and the impact of political interference as key barriers to success. Recommendations include strengthening legal frameworks, enhancing transparency, and promoting public awareness to foster a culture of accountability within Nigeria.
