A short but interesting article in The Jakarta Post:

Judges’ financial transactions to be tracked

(30/07/2012) The Judicial Commission said it would use data from the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (PPATK) to asses the performance of judges in the country.

Deputy chairman of the Judicial Commission, Imam Anshori Saleh, said that the commission would launch investigations against any judges who had suspicious transactions in their bank accounts.

“This is part of our efforts to maintain the integrity of judges,” Imam said as quoted by kompas.com.

The commission has signed a deal with the PPATK under which the former can obtain the financial records of all the judges in the country.
