JAKARTA - A number of state civil servants (ASN) of the central government are reported to want to be transferred to the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government because they do not want to be moved to the state capital (IKN) Nusantara in East Kalimantan.
In response to this, the Governor of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan forbade ASN to apply for mutations in droves so that they can continue to work in Jakarta. Anies views that the number of DKI Provincial Government employees is sufficient.
"Actually, we are in DKI Jakarta, the numbers are very sufficient. So, don't be a burden to the citizens of Jakarta. In terms of numbers, we have enough in Jakarta," said Anies when met in East Jakarta, Wednesday, March 2.
Previously, the Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment and Bureaucratic Reform Tjahjo Kumolo claimed to have received news that there were several ASNs who were reluctant to move to IKN. They want to be transferred to become local government employees, especially the DKI Provincial Government.
However, Tjahjo emphasized that ASN currently working in ministries/agencies must be ready to move to IKN Nusantara although the number of ASNs to be transferred has not yet been decided.
“ASN cannot ask to move to an area with the reason that they do not want to move to the new capital city. Although it has not yet been decided how many will be transferred from the central ministry/institution, but if it has been decided then the law is mandatory," Tjahjo said as quoted in an official statement.
So far, said Tjahjo, the Kemenpan RB is still finalizing the scenario of transferring ASN to IKN Nusantara. Currently, it has entered the stage of one-on-one discussions with several ministries/agencies that are included in the priority of moving to a new IKN in 2024
"We, together with the Ministry of National Development Planning/Bappenas, the Ministry of Finance and other relevant agencies, are intensely one-on-one with the ministries/agencies that are included in the priority Cluster I to move to IKN in 2024 which will come," said Tjahjo.
The ASN transfer scenario includes the number of ASN to be moved, considerations of bringing the ASN family (husband/wife and children), related to additional benefits other than the salary received by the ASN who moves, to the readiness of residential infrastructure for the ASN.
