JAKARTA - The Commander of the Marine Corps Major General (Mar) Widodo Dwi Purwanto said the corps he leads wants the TNI Commander General Andika Perkasa to be appointed as an honorary citizen of the marines.

"The Marine Corps wants to appoint you as an honorary citizen of the Marine Corps," said Marine Corps Commander Major General TNI (Mar) Widodo Dwi Purwanto who was monitored from the YouTube channel in Jakarta, Antara, Tuesday, March 22.

Widodo believes that by appointing Panglima Andika as an honorary citizen, it will be a source of enthusiasm for the soldiers in the unit. "I'm sure it is, sir," said TNI Major General (Mar) Widodo Dwi Purwanto.

The honorary citizen of the Marine Corps is an award given to the leadership of the TNI for their attention and contribution to the Marine Corps.

The Commander of the Indonesian National Armed Forces, General Andika Perkasa, said that basically, he did not want to burden the lower units, especially when he was invited to an activity. This is because the former Army Chief of Staff (KSAD) knows that the lower units have no budget or unplanned costs.

"If I want to attend to receive the award, I must first agree with the concept from the host. I don't want my presence to burden the lower unit," said Andika.

Finally, he advised Major General TNI (Mar) Widodo Dwi Purwanto to always remind the ranks of the Marine Corps to maintain the good name of agencies and units.

"Don't take actions that actually damage yourself and even damage institutions," he said.
