The organizations also urged the government to impoverish corruptors and making them poor will certainly provide a scary role model for those who wish to engage in corruption. This strategy of impoverishing the corruptors can be applied by the law enforcement agencies.

In addition, the organizations also called on political parties and leaders of the House to fire members convicted of corruption.

"We call on the political parties and the House to dismiss members involved in corruption cases and the Anti-Corruption Court decisions to be capable of impoverishing corruptors," Kiai Said said.
