Mohon maaf lahir batin (Forgive me body and soul). This simple sentence is a statement of extraordinary humility because it breaks down the law-based wrong-correct calculation. Its virtue values are so basic that religious barriers are often unimportant. We all beg and offer forgiveness to each other on Idul Fitri. Unfortunately, wrong-correct calculation based on ethics is not carried out on other days by state officials.

Ethics is related to scales based on human reason that guides our behavior. In the context of the state, ethics is more fundamental than the law and formal rules made in political spaces, which can be polluted by various political interests of the group. Ethics is based on the thinking about the nature of the state, which at first (and in the end) must be about citizens, not the authorities.
