Member Of Commission III Asks 447 Young Police Officers To Maintain Ethics And Civil Justice

JAKARTA - Member of Commission III of the DPR Sarifudin Sudding responded to the inauguration of 447 young Polri officers which were carried out directly by President Prabowo Subianto. He advised the National Police officers to maintain ethics and civil justice.

According to Sudding, the inauguration of 2,000 prospective youth officers (Capaja) of the TNI/Polri at the 2025 Prasetya Perwira Ceremony must be a momentum for the regeneration of the national defense and security apparatus.

"The newly inaugurated National Police are not just law enforcement officers, but civil justice guards and direct representations from the state," said Sudding to reporters, Wednesday, July 23.

Sudding emphasized that the task of the National Police in today's modern era is not only limited to law enforcement, but also must maintain public trust in the country through fair and transparent service.

"Don't underestimate daily interactions in the field. Take care of ethics, and be fair to civilians. Because integrity is accompanied by a humble attitude, it will strengthen institutional legitimacy," said Sudding.

"If the authority is misused, then what is damaged is not only personal reputation, but also trust in the Polri institution," continued the PAN legislator.

As a member of Commission III in partnership with the National Police, Sudding highlighted the importance of transformation of the work culture within the Bhayangkara Corps. He reminded that young officers must become motorbikes for changing the professional and humanist police bureaucracy.

"Don't make it a means of intimidation or immunity to criticism. Use your authority to strengthen social justice and inclusive public services," said Sudding.

Sudding also reminded the importance of Polri neutrality in dealing with socio-political dynamics, especially ahead of the political year and elections in the next 5 years.

"The National Police must be the guardian of the democratic process, not a political player. The involvement of the apparatus in political contestation will injure democracy and weaken people's trust," he said.

In addition, Sudding assessed that young Polri officers must receive multidisciplinary briefing. Not only police technical mastery, officers must also understand state administrative law, civil rights, and social conflict management.

"In the future, professionalism is not only a matter of firmness, but also social sensitivity, the ability to communicate with the community, and readiness to be monitored openly by the public," concluded Sudding.

Capaja is a cadet and cadet at the final level of four academies, namely the Military Academy (Akmil), the Naval Academy (AAL), the Air Force Academy (AU), and the Police Academy (Akpol).

President Prabowo officially inaugurated 2 thousand Prospective Youth Officers (Capaja) inaugurated by President Prabowo at the Palace consisting of 827 Military Academy Capaja (Akmil), 433 Naval Academy Academies (AAL), 293 Air Force Academy Academies (AU) and 447 Police Academy Capaja (Akpol) at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, this morning.

In the 2025 Prasetya Officer Ceremony, President Prabowo advised the police youth officers to uphold Tribrata and Catur Prasetya as guidelines in their duties.
