Events that took place from the afternoon until the evening at the monument in this struggle Yogyakarta supported by friends from UMY’s BEM. And the surprise is the late, in the meet by the visitors. Participation of students and college students to fight corruption through the music is worth diacungi thumb. This shows our colleagues are convinced that corruption is the enemy and the enemy with the students as well.

The idea is we can participate in the fight against corruption with a shout antikorupsi in any form. Can through music, can be through a movie, can through poetry, comics, cartoon, animation and much more. So … when we do more of it if we don’t satart from now? … Anyone can do … If you want a course … Agree?

Hold approximately if KPK make similar activities, Slankers colleagues would do so following the content of the KPK’s event?

So ….?
