He said regional autonomy and decentralization are the best choices for the country in managing government in order to bring public services closer, encourage regional development and revive quality local democracy.

Therefore, the Vice President asked district leaders and their apparatus to be alert in maintaining stability and security, before and until the implementation of elections and regional elections.

"Increase coordination and anticipate potential vulnerabilities that may arise so that elections and elections in 2024 can run smoothly, so that it becomes a process for the birth of transformative leaders, leaders who will manage the preparation of state and regional policies to bring in benefits for the people," he concluded.
