The religious-based Prosperous Justice Party says it will evaluate the performance of controversial Depok mayor Nur Mahmudi Ismail after the Corruption Eradication Commission ranked the city on the outskirts of Jakarta as Indonesia’s second most corrupt.
The damning integrity rankings place the city just behind Metro in Lampung out of the 60 cities surveyed as part of the antigraft agency’s integrity survey.
Legislator Aboe Bakar Al Habsyi, a senior member of the conservative party, known as the PKS, told the Jakarta Globe on Wednesday that the information would be used to evaluate the performance of all party members.
“The survey provides constructive criticism for the PKS even though we still need to check whether the data is trustworthy or not.”
The KPK conducts the integrity survey each year to measure the level of corruption in public institutions. It was conducted among 15,540 respondents who interact with 89 different institutions in different categories.
Bekasi scored just 3.5. At the other end of the scale, the administration of Dumai, Riau, ranked highest with an integrity score of 7.77. The government of Bukit Tinggi was ranked a close second with an integrity score of 7.67.
Nur Mahmudi was elected to a second term in office in controversial circumstances earlier this year.
He has previously been criticized for failing to achieve anything major during his time in office and has adopted a hard-line against religious minorities, including the Ahmadiyah.
