Abstract
The formulation of the Criminal Law policy in the framework of handling corruption in the future has been attempted, namely through the formulation of the Corruption Crime Eradication Bill (August 2008 Manuscript). The concept of the Corruption Crime Eradication Bill refers to the 2003 UNCAC Convention. The criminal system formulation in the Corruption Crime Eradication Law No.31 of 1999 Jo. Law No. 20 of 2001 regulates the elements and groupings of criminal acts of corruption, there is no formulation regarding the criminal system which specifically regulates corruption crimes committed by regional officials, there is only a qualification for criminal acts of corruption that fulfill elements the subject is a Regional Official. Because punishment is related to the maximum specified for perpetrators of corruption whose subject qualifications are regional officials, it is only in the form of imprisonment for a maximum of 20 years or life imprisonment, not subject to the death penalty or other special maximum alternative sanctions. It is ironic. Bearing in mind that in Article 2 of the Law on the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption No. 31 of 1999 Jo. Law No. 20 of 2001, whose subject qualifications are not regional officials/state administrators, regulates capital punishment.
