• After the independence in 1945, corruption decreased for a short period, due to nationalistic fervor and policies made by early Indonesian government to create professional bureaucracy.

• After 1955, corruption increased again due to the increasing need of political parties to seek spoils and reward supporters and also due to the abolishment of democratic rule by President Sukarno in 1959

• Corruption grew even worse after General Suharto took over power from Sukarno in 1966. Suharto distributed state resources to family members and other cronies ( Cukong relationship- relationship between ethnic Chinese businessmen and native Indonesian civil and military officers)
