JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan has offered the name of the candidate for Mayor of Central Jakarta to replace Bayu Meghantara, who was removed due to negligence in the crowd of Rizieq Shihab in Petamburan.

This was stated in a letter to the Chairman of the DKI Regional Parliament, Prasetio Edi Marsudi. Anies offered the name of the Head of the DKI Population and Civil Registration Service, Dhany Sukma and asked for advice from Prasetio.

In response to this, Prasetio said that he had received the letter proposing the name. Prasetio said that his party was conducting a background check on Dhany's performance.

"We are still monitoring who he is and what his abilities are. We'll make a fit and proper test. After that, we will send a letter back to the governor," Prasetio told reporters on Thursday, December 3.

According to him, this was done because not just any civil servant could fulfill the requirements to serve as Mayor of Central Jakarta. The person who will become the Mayor of Central Jakarta must have experience in managing the area. Moreover, the center of the Capital City is the most strategic location in Jakarta.

"If he has never previously led the region, that's difficult. Because Central Jakarta is very strategic. There are State Palace, City Hall, DPRD, to the slum areas in Johar and Tanah Tinggi. He has to control it," Prasetio explained.

For information, Anies Baswedan removed the Mayor of Central Jakarta Bayu Megantara from his position. This removal was due to Bayu being proven to have violated the provisions for facilitating a crowd event held by Rizieq Shihab in Petamburan some time ago.

"This dismissal is based on the results of the DKI Jakarta Inspectorate audit which assessed that the two of them had been negligent and neglected by not obeying the direction and instructions from the Governor," said the Head of DKI's BKD, Chaidir.

Even though he was removed from the position of head of the regional work unit (SKPD), Anies appointed Bayu to become a member of the DKI Jakarta Governor's Team for the Acceleration of Development (TGUPP).
