Indonesia submits instrument to UN ratify convention against corruption




Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The Indonesian government has submitted an instrument 
to ratify the UN Convention Against Corruption to UN Secretary General Kofi 
Annan at the UN Headquarters in New York, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said.

Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda submitted the instrument to the UN early this 
week, Desra Percaya said in New York on Friday.

"Corruption is an extraordinary transnational crime so that we need 
international cooperation to fight it," Desra said.

The UN Convention began to take effect on December 14, 2005 after 30 countries 
had submitted instruments to ratify it, he said.

Indonesia is the 65th country to submit such an instrument.



Under Law No.7/2006, the Indonesian government had ratified the convention, he 
said.

Wirajuda told reporters in Jakarta before leaving for New York some time ago 
that corruption was not only national but also global issues.

Even the UN General Assembly sessions between 2002 and 2003 focused on fighting 
corruption. After lengthy negotiations, 128 UN members including Indonesia 
adopted the Convention Against Corruption on October 31, 2003, he said.

On a regional scale, concrete actions against corruption became a central topic 
of discussion at the APEC Summit in Santiago, Chile, in 2004, and in Busan, 
South Korea, in 2005, he said.

"This convention is designed to enhance international cooperation in chasing 
and arresting corruptors and seizing and returning their ill-gotten wealth to 
their countries of origin," he said. (*)
