Laughing at corruptors is the main mission of the author of this book. Corruptors who have robbed many people of money, are stripped away, are stripped of their stories in this book. The author clearly reveals the reality experienced by corruptors. Of course with humorous language. Not judgmental but make irony.
This book tastes crunchy. Full of funny herbs. In the introduction to the book, the introductory writer quoted several quotes in the book. Everything is allusions to corruptors. From the sweetest, to the most spicy. All with light language. Delicious digested.
The entire book consists of 12 parts. Each section contains a story concerning the events experienced by corruptors. Both corrupt anchors, to the big class.
But not all of them tell explicitly about corruptors. Corrupt stories are explicitly told in three parts. While the other nine parts slip the role of corruptors backing up the antagonist role in the story part. Not to mention the impact of corruption on the community. Again with crisp language.
The strength of this book lies in its simple language. Typical daily conversation. Even without a regional language quote. Don't imagine like we read scientific works. Agus Noor's short story is far from that. We don't need to frown at laughing at corruptors. Even we are invited to laugh and laugh at them.
As seen in the joke section of the corruptors. In this section the author tells how corruptors survive in prison. With various background cases that ensnare, the corruptors work together. Fighting over boredom. Presenting a bustling atmosphere like outside the prison. Work together to please each other.
Another story also explains how a corruptor from among law enforcement officials exploits a child with disabilities. The goal is to dredge the coffers of the rupiah. There is no longer the term HAM (Human Rights). Especially the attitude of affection for children with disabilities. Everything ran aground in the eyes of corruptors. Only personal benefits can be seen in the eyes of the corruptor.
This book is no doubt a stirrer of emotions for those who really hate corruption. How not, the writer casually tells clearly how the mode, and the daily life of these corruptors. Including other problems that also followed them. Readers are invited to follow more closely with the corruptors. Somewhat mystical is fine. Because occultism can be an attractive attraction to tell about various crimes and the effects of corrupt actions. Don't be wrong either. Because corruptors also like occultism. Of course with the terms. As long as it can free them from the pursuit of investigating the case that surrounds it.
The author is also able to present how human rights violations (Human Rights) always coalesce with corruption in the story in this book. About people who have to be losers because of corruption. How the community has become an entity that is repressed by corruptors with various pretexts. Starting from corruptors under the guise of RT officials to high-class officials. So that they cannot fulfill their basic rights.
Corruption can not only be seen from the perspective of the articles in the legislation alone. Because if that's the parameter, corruption will only be an elitist issue. This book is an effort to ground the issue of corruption which has been seen as only an issue of the elite. By knowing the illustrations of everyday corruptors, the people can laugh at them too. Laugh at their crime. Including laughing at some people who still want to turn themselves into corruptors. Or become corrupt accomplices.
The conclusion is simple. Reading this book means entering ourselves as part of a fight against corruption. Why? Because through this book, the reader knows how fierce corruption is. How complex are the problems caused by corruption. And how we cannot stop fighting corruption.
