Recognising and detecting patterns of village corruption in Indonesia

The increasing trend of village-level corruption cases in Indonesia needs to be addressed by the government. The National Strategy of Corruption Prevention (NSCP) policy couldn't improve Indonesia's corruption perception score. Corruption prevention policies have so far not targeted villages with certain characteristics. The Village Development Index (IDM), measured by the Ministry of Villages, Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration, should identify villages affected by corruption cases. This research uses the qualitative descriptive method. The results show that those most affected by corruption cases in Indonesia are developing villages on Java Island. Other results find the need for an analysis of fraud or fraud analytics in villages using information technology or data processing. The practical implication of the research is a basis for revising corruption prevention and detection policies and determining the target groups.
