JAKARTA - Member of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Gilbert Simanjuntak, asked that anyone who will be appointed as the Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta during 2022 to 2024 can maintain good communication with the DKI DPRD. Gilbert emphasized that the Acting Governor should not imitate Anies' attitude, which is considered to have little communication and often carry out programs by not involving members of the parliament. "Communication with the legislature really needs to be maintained by the Acting Officer so that he is not injured and causes an attractive attraction like when Governor Anies," Gilbert said in his statement, Monday, August 29. This is related to the preparation of a regional development plan (RPD) containing the Jakarta development program which will be implemented in the 2023 to 2026 fiscal years. Gilbert said that if the Acting Governor of DKI could not maintain the harmony of communication between the executive and the legislature, then the DKI Provincial Government's preparation of the RPD would be hampered. "The problem that needs to be addressed is the RPD per year, along with the extension of the Acting Officer every year. Good communication with the legislature will make the RPD get support," said Gilbert. Not to mention, Gilbert views that Anies will inherit many problems after his term of office ends on October 16, 2022. These problems range from a number of programs that do not achieve targets such as infiltration wells, the naming of regional general hospitals (RSUD) into healthy homes for Jakarta, to poor communication between Anies and the DKI DPRD. "There are still many other problems that arise, because Jakarta does contain many problems. Looking at the above picture, it is better for the Acting Governor to know Jakarta. A acting person who knows Jakarta very little will spend at least 4 months adapting. While the problem has increased in that period," he added.
