JAKARTA - Minister of Administrative Reform and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB) Tjahjo Kumolo promised to impose strict sanctions on the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) affiliated with the radicalism movement.
Together with the National Civil Service Agency (BKN), the ministry led by Tjahjo Kumolo routinely holds hearings for imposing sanctions on ASN. Sanctions are imposed for civil servants who violate regulatory disciplines. Firm action is given to civil servants who are exposed to radicalism and terrorism.
"If a civil servant is exposed to radicalism, of course he will be freed from work (non-job) and fostered. If he is a terrorist, obviously there is a basis, then he will be fired, ”said Minister Tjahjo, quoted from his official statement.
The state's steps against radicalism were manifested in the Joint Decree (SKB) on ASN's Handling of Radicalism, which was signed on November 12, 2019.
The SKB was signed by 11 ministries and agencies. These parties, including the PANRB Ministry, the Ministry of Religion, the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Ministry of Education and Culture, the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology, the State Intelligence Agency, the Pancasila Ideology Development Agency, BKN, the National Counterterrorism Agency, and the Commission State Civil Apparatus.
The spokesperson for the Alumni of Higher Education Concerning Pancasila (PTPP), Budi Hermansyah, fully supports the policy. The reason is that he is worried about the number of ASNs who have been involved in radicalism for some time. He believes that the government's move is the right strategy.
The PTPP Alumni Team hopes that the government can cooperate with state universities (PTN). They conveyed that it is very important to prevent radicalism among young people.
In addition, the PTPP Alumni Team also provided recommendations for efforts to clean up radicalism among ASN.
"The requirement of loyalty to the ideology of the Republic of Indonesia is very important for ASN, so the Minister of PANRB has made a breakthrough in the form of enacting regulations that bind ASN and making integrity pacts for all ASN to be loyal to the four National Pillars," said Budi.
