JAKARTA - Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment and Bureaucratic Reform (Menpan RB) Abdullah Azwar Anas said the reformulation of the selection of Government Employees with a technical Work Agreement (PPPK) form of recognition from the government to participants of former non-ASN or honorary workers.

"Every policy issued considers various comprehensive aspects and is expected to have a proper impact on all parties, of course it cannot please all parties," said Azwar Anas in his statement, Friday, August 4, which was confiscated by Antara.

He said the reformulation policy in the 2022 technical PPPK selection had gone through a joint discussion process with the State Civil Service Agency (BKN) and related agencies.

However, the Minister of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform emphasized that in principle the Kemenpan RB optimizes the reformulation process by affirming the participants of the former THK-II or non-ASN or honorary staff participants who already have a track record of service in every government agency.

He emphasized that in principle every citizen has the same rights and opportunities to participate in the CASN selection as long as they meet the requirements.

"Friends who have not graduated, we hope not to be discouraged, there is still a selection in 2023 that we are trying to make policy breakthroughs in the procurement of ASN, including in terms of selection so that it is always relevant to the times and still meets the qualifications of the needs of a formation," he said.

Deputy for Human Resources of the Ministry of Administrative Affairs, RB Alex Denni, explained that all aspects were considered and observed in the technical PPPK reformulation policy.

"The consideration is that we first provide affirmations to those who have served, namely the former THK-II or non-ASN staff participants. This is an aspect of justice considering they have worked in government agencies," he said.

In addition, according to him, it must maintain quality in the recruitment process so that reformulation is determined by ranking participants who have a high sequential test result and the quality is reflected in the best test results produced by participants.

Alex added that the total PPPK recruited in the 2022 selection was 396,754 people, with details of 38,820 or almost 10 percent of whom were applicants from the general public and the rest came from ex-THK-II and non-ASN/honorary staff.

According to him, specifically for technical PPPK, which was reformulated out of a total of 76,867 received, 10,520 or around 13.6 percent of them were from general applicants.

Alex explained that based on the results of the graduation, the formation occupancy of 250,432 people passed the teacher's PPPK selection or around 78.5 percent of the total formations set.

Meanwhile, for functional positions for health workers who graduated as much as 69,455 or 78.6 percent.

Meanwhile, PPPK technical personnel who passed were 51,687 or 46.8 percent. After the reformulation, the increase in the graduation of PPPK for technical personnel was around 70 percent, to be precise 69.60 percent or 76,867 people.
