As part of this effort, the government hosted the National Oversight & Integrity Forum 2025 on Monday (Sept. 22), aiming to generate actionable recommendations to improve oversight systems and public trust.
“We hope this forum becomes a space for oversight actors to exchange ideas, sharpen policies, and build public confidence,” said Erwan Agus Purwanto, a deputy at the Ministry of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform, on Wednesday.
Held under the theme “Strengthening National Oversight, Building Global Public Integrity,” the forum emphasized the need for institutions to be more adaptive to evolving global standards and public expectations.

Purwanto noted that the OECD’s Framework for Public Integrity is being used to guide Indonesia’s policy reforms and enhance international confidence in its governance systems.
These reforms are outlined in the National Bureaucratic Reform Grand Design 2025–2045, which aims to align Indonesia’s oversight practices with OECD benchmarks.
One key metric is the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), which reflects the country’s progress in adopting OECD-aligned oversight policies and strengthening institutional accountability.
OECD Senior Policy Analyst Carissa Munro praised Indonesia’s regulatory framework but said improvements are needed in conflict-of-interest reporting and political transparency.
Aminudin, Acting Deputy for Prevention and Monitoring at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), stressed the importance of focusing reforms on real-world implementation, risk management, and political accountability.
