Therefore, KPK is trying to further explore cooperation with UAD, we hope that there will be an MoU and we can insert anti-corruption values ​​in Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi," said Masagung.

In response, Kasiyarno also wanted UAD to be directly involved in assisting KPK in preventing criminal acts of corruption. He conveyed that the socialization of anti-corruption education was still rare to find.
