Yes, lawmakers should be banned from having individual stock. Why? Because of corruption. When an individual is a lawmaker and at the same time has individual stock, they're going to cut corners because they have power and they have authority. Therefore, when they do work, that is, when they do individual work, apart from making laws, everybody who's in the business area of stock is going to cut corners for them because they want laws made as to what they want.

When we talk about lawmakers, these are individuals who make the law. These are individuals who are ministers, individuals who are members of parliament. When such individuals have got businesses, regardless of what fault they have in their businesses, because they make the laws, nobody is going to confront them. Why? Because they are the lawmakers. And when an individual goes against them, they fear because they fear for their own safety and their own businesses that they conduct. Because, as they say of such an individual, a police officer cannot say anything to contravene a member of parliament's business trade. What are they going to say when the member of parliament has the power or has connections to fire them?

It is my submission that because of corruption and the power that the lawmakers have, no matter how disclosure is or transparency is to be made, there is still going to be corruption. Even the nature, without even wanting and calling for corruption, even just the nature of one being a lawmaker, changes how others treat them.
