MAMUJU - Acting Governor of West Sulawesi (Sulbar) Akmal Malik asked to be given up to 6 hours to clear up deficiencies and resolve development problems in this province.
"Give me 6 months to fix all the shortcomings and realize what the community needs and expect regarding the development of West Sulawesi. After that, I am ready to be evaluated," said Akmal Malik in Mamuju as reported by Antara, Thursday, May 19.
Akmal, who is still serving as Director General of Regional Autonomy at the Ministry of Home Affairs, said that the demands of students in West Sulawesi who want a better development than the previous government have been recorded and will be realized together.
According to him, all student demands are a good thing for the progress of development in West Sulawesi, but it takes time to make improvements to make it happen.
He said the weakness of development in West Sulawesi is not based on data so that it will be the first step in carrying out development, namely preparing data-based development.
"The demands of students who are dissatisfied with the development carried out by the previous government are related to the problem of unfulfilled data so that this should be evaluated first and that is the task of the current government," said Akmal.
Akmal will evaluate government officials on all regional apparatus organizations (OPD) of West Sulawesi which are considered unable to carry out development for the welfare of the community.
"I promise to evaluate OPD officials for the success of development in West Sulawesi. But give me time to act because at this time I have only been the Acting Governor of West Sulawesi," he said.
Meanwhile hundreds of students in Mamuju have submitted a number of demands to the Acting Governor of West Sulawesi to be resolved.
The demands of the students, among others, are inadequate road infrastructure in all regencies in West Sulawesi, the West Sulawesi government's disaster management which is considered poor, high poverty rates, and low economic growth.
In addition, students also asked for the quality of education to be improved, to maximize health services, and to handle waste problems in Polman Regency.
