YOGYAKARTA Diplomat is a position given by the state to someone through the government. People who are appointed as diplomats usually do not come from ordinary people, but are considered capable of representing the state to establish good relations with foreign countries. The way to become a diplomat is through the selection stage held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Kemenlu). For further understanding regarding the diplomat profession, see the following article.
The most common way to become a diplomat is to take part in the selection of Candidates for Civil Servants (CPNS) of the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Kemenlu) first.
After qualifying as a CPNS and being appointed as a civil servant (PNS), a new candidate can be called a diplomat. However, the process of becoming a senior diplomat is quite long, including being obliged to attend the Foreign Service School (Sekdulu) for 6 to 8 months. In the Secretary of the Candidate, the candidate will be taught how to become the first young diplomat.
It didn't stop there, after graduating from the Secretary of State, he continued his education to the Foreign Service Staff School (Sedulu). This education is intended for representatives of the state who have finished being placed abroad.
After completing Sesdilu, young diplomats will be asked to continue to the Foreign Leadership School (Sesparlu), namely education programs and functional training as high-level diplomats at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Sesparlu education is expected to be able to develop the competence of senior diplomats so that they can sit in high positions at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The duties of permanent diplomatic representatives are explained in 3 paragraph (1) of the 1961 Vienna convention, which is as follows.
