  "account": "Indonesia's academic community has highlighted the inadequate institutional systems in place to support ethical values among the populace, a study conducted by the Soedarpo Sastrosatomo Center for Ethics and Organizational Culture has revealed. While 98% of 282 private workers surveyed identified honesty as a core value in combating corruption, only a mere 15% of the surveyed organizations had established standardized integrity systems. Management expert Aries Heru Prasetyo noted that even when such systems exist, they often fail to nurture the very ethical values they aim to uphold. This lack of strong, ethical institutional frameworks not only undermines a culture of speaking up against wrongdoing but also erodes trust in these integrity mechanisms. Only 60% of respondents expressed comfort in utilizing whistleblowing systems to report corruption.",
