History

Malang was granted its status as a municipality by the Dutch East Indies government in 1914, with the municipal council founded on 6 October 1914. [1] In 1922, the municipal council moved to its current modern location at Alun-Alun Tugu  [ id ]. [2] [3] During the Dutch period, the council consisted of 11 members, of which 8 were Dutch, 2 were native Indonesians, and the last seat was allocated for non-native groups such as Arabs or Chinese. [3]

Under an independent Indonesia, the city council was reestablished in 1950, as a provisional legislature. [4] The first elected council served between 1951 and 1956. [5]

In 2018, 41 out of 45 members of the legislature were arrested as suspects for bribery, in a case which also implicated mayor Mochammad Anton. [6] The arrested members were accused of having received payments ranging from Rp 12.5 to 50 million (USD 842 to 3,368) in order to approve the proposed municipal budget in 2015. [6] 40 replacements were sworn in around a week following the arrests in order to maintain the municipal government's functions. [7] 40 of the suspects were found guilty of the charges, and received sentences ranging from 4 to 5 years. [8] [9]
