Deputy Head of the Hajj Organizing Agency, Dahnil Anzar Simanjuntak, ensures that changes to the nomenclature along with the organizational structure and governance (SOTK) from BP Hajj to the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah will be carried out by taking into account the principles of integrity and competence.
"The President emphasized the importance of integrity and competence. So it is not immediately transferred for all employees. There will be a selection process that considers track records and integrity," said Dahnil as quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, August 23.
Dahnil explained that the existing structure under the Ministry of Religion, such as the Head of Hajj at the provincial and district levels, would be transferred to a new structure at the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah.
In addition, the Integrated Hajj and Umrah Service Center (PLHUT) building in each district/city will become the Office of the Ministry of Hajj in the regions.
"This is actually just a kind of village idol. A structure like the Head of Hajj at the Ministry of Religion will be moved to the Ministry of Hajj," he said.
Dahnil also said that the Hajj dormitories that are already available in various regions will function as part of the ministry's infrastructure, including as the office of the Head of the Hajj Regional Office (Kakanwil).
"We are ready in terms of assets. PLHUT and Hajj dormitories will become the basis of service in the regions," he said.
Previously, the change in the nomenclature of the Hajj Organizing Body (BP Hajj) to the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah was part of President Prabowo Subianto's vision since his candidacy for the 2014 Presidential Election.
"Since 2014, Pak Prabowo has had a vision to form the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. This is consistent until the 2019 and 2024 presidential elections," said Dahnil.
Dahnil said the next step after determining the nomenclature was to wait for the issuance of a Presidential Regulation (Perpres) which would regulate the organizational and work procedures (SOTK), as well as institutions from the new ministry.
"After the law is passed, the next process is the preparation of the Presidential Decree. Later this Presidential Regulation will further regulate the institutional affairs and structure of the ministry," said Dahnil.
