H.E. MME. PIA KJAERSGAARD

Speaker of the Danish Parliament of Denmark

Excellency,

It is our pleasure to extend an invitation for up to three members of your parliament to attend the Global

Organization of Parliamentarians Against Corruption’s (GOPAC)

Sixth Global Conference of

Parliamentarians Against Corruption

to be held in Yogyakarta, Indonesia from 6 to 8 October 2015.

The

conference is a joint initiative of the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia, GOPAC, the

South East Asian Parliamentarians Against Corruption (SEAPAC) and GOPAC Indonesia.

We look forward to welcoming a record number of GOPAC members and prospective members from all

over the world, along with representatives from governments, and international organizations as well as

observers committed to combatting corruption. The conference is a premier opportunity for delegates to

participate in thoughtful discussions and workshops aimed at ensuring parliamentarians have the skills to

combat corruption and providing a platform to share challenges and successes.

This is a unique and innovative event with the sole agenda of fighting corruption in each of our countries.

Each Global Conference since our founding has enabled GOPAC to flourish and our network of dedicated

parliamentarians to grow. Our fifth conference, in the Philippines, was our most successful and well-

attended since GOPAC’s inception and set the course for our central priorities, in particular the fight

against Grand Corruption. Previous conferences held in Canada, Tanzania, Kuwait and Mexico have been

integral to advancements in the organization’s agenda and in furthering capacity building and knowledge

of key anti-corruption tools and mechanisms.

The House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia is providing the venue, arranging for a

streamlined process for obtaining visas to enter Indonesia, providing transportation within Yogyakarta

and the formal conference meals. Conference participants and their sponsors must cover the cost of

international travel and accommodation in Yogyakarta. Participants must register in advance but there is

no registration fee.

In selecting participation from parliament, we ask that you consider balanced representation - inclusion

of both governing and opposition parties and both men and women. Representation of your parliament

at the conference will be seen as a strong gesture of your legislature's commitment to supporting GOPAC

and fighting corruption.

there support in building strong mechanisms to combat and prevent corruption and to building integrity

in parliaments for the well-being and prosperity of societies and citizens the world over.

Yours Sincerely,

SETYA NOVANTO
