JAKARTA - A number of state civil servants (ASN) in the South Sulawesi Provincial Government have no problem with receiving booster vaccinations as a condition for obtaining additional employee income (TPP).

A number of OPD within the South Sulawesi Provincial Government have received the TPP for April, followed by the TPP in May 2022.

"There is no problem, we all accept the terms well. Because if someone doesn't get a booster due to medical considerations, they can include a medical certificate," said Bambang, an ASN from the South Sulawesi Satpol PP OPD in Makassar, Tuesday, June 21, quoted from Antara.

Anne Marie, an ASN at the South Sulawesi Governor's Office, said the same thing. He said he really appreciates the leadership's policy that the TPP requirement must be a booster.

"I personally support that. Besides, if you can't get the vaccine, you can get a certificate from the doctor that for example there is a problem with his body so that vaccination is dangerous for him. I have received the TPP, and there is no problem with that condition," said Anne.

Annisa, an ASN in the Provincial Government, and her friends in the OPD have received the TPP.

"Nobody complained about the booster requirements. First, it's really busy looking for a booster service. That's all, after the queue is finished, then the certificate is uploaded to the e-performance system and is liquid," he said.

Head of the South Sulawesi BKD Imran Jausi, said the government appealed to citizens to vaccinate, ASN needed to be an example for the community about compliance in accelerating COVID-19 vaccination.

"However, it is not mandatory. If you can't vaccinate, you can attach a doctor's certificate. So, it's not true because of vaccination, TPP is slow to disburse, even though it's because of the new system," he said.
