Policy Corruption and Conflicts of Interest: Gray Corruption

Abstract

         Corruption It is a serious and corrosive form of economic crime in society where it is difficult to track, investigate, arrest and prosecute its perpetrators. It is also a problem that has been going on for a long time. The forms of corruption can be divided into 3 main types, which are 1) black corruption, 2) grey corruption, and 3) white corruption. The grey corruption is considered corruption when one cannot clearly define the meaning and nature of such corruption. Because it is something that is unacceptable to society, but at the same time, the doer is not subject to any censure from society because such actions can be seen in general. Especially in the matter of the government's various policies, sometimes it is difficult to make clear that it is a policy for the benefit of the public or that it is the formulation of policies to benefit any person or group of people in a corrupt way by taking advantage of the opportunity of being a government official who has the opportunity or power to formulate those policies.

          This article has suggestions for creating a body of knowledge for dissemination. and to raise public awareness of the dangers of gray corruption, including the creation of values that do not accept corruption at any level. There should also be guidelines for building cooperation with the people's sector to monitor and investigate corruption problems. To create a network to detect corruption that is strong and sustainable.
