'Open prison' for Indonesia's rich - Asia-pacific - Al Jazeera English

See the Al Jazeera video: 'Open prison' for Indonesia's rich - Asia-pacific - Al Jazeera English

Corruption has always been a big problem in Indonesia. The issue runs deep, even in prisons.

A detained tax official - on trial for corruption involving millions of dollars - was photographed at a tennis tournament in Bali wearing a wig and glasses.

After days of denial, he admitted that he had taken a holiday from prison.
Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, the Indonesian president, has made combating corruption one of his main priorities. But he says he cannot interfere in the legal system.

Al Jazeera's Step Vaessen reports from Jakarta, so far no concrete steps have been taken to stop wealthy detainees from taking a break from prison.

Comedy Central: MBA Ethics Oath

John Oliver enlists the help of a former convict to convince business students to sign an ethics oath.

It's a sad statement that students are unable to commit to such a generic oath. Schools should insist student's sign this oath before they are admitted to an MBA program.
