JAKARTA - Minister of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Basuki Hadimuljono officially closed the National Defense Training for PPK and PBJ Working Group of the Ministry of PUPR in 2022 at the Pangkalan Menjangan Kopassus 2 Headquarters, Sukoharjo, Central Java, on Friday, November 4.
Basuki said the state defense training carried out would instill disciplinary values, militancy, and nationalism for CPNS of the Ministry of PUPR. This is expected to be a motivation and driving force in the implementation of infrastructure development tasks throughout Indonesia.
"I want the Ministry of PUPR to become a credible and trusted organization with integrity and competence. One way to build integrity is through this training to defend the country," he said in a written statement, Friday, November 4.
After the closure of the National Defense Training for PPK and PBJ Working Group of the Ministry of PUPR in 2022, Basuki hopes that there will be good results within the Ministry of PUPR in the future.
"To PUPR personnel who have attended the training to defend themselves at Kopassus, I really hope the results will be useful for carrying out their duties at the Ministry of PUPR," he said.
Not only that, Basuki also expressed his highest gratitude and appreciation to Colonel Inf. Sabdono Budi Wiryanto as the Commander of Group 2 Kopassus and all instructors who have educated. They are considered to have transmitted the spirit of patriotism, fighting spirit, and the soul of never giving up to PUPR personnel.
"Although the Kopassus Group 2 is not a training ground for civilians, it is not an obstacle for instructors in providing materials that have been designed in such a way as to adjust to the limits of the ability of state defense training participants of the Ministry of PUPR," he said.
Meanwhile, Kopassus Group 2 Commander Colonel Inf. Sabdono Budi Wiryanto said the state defense training was attended by 170 participants with 141 male and 29 female participants.
The training was held for 15 days, from October 22 to November 5, 2022 with several training materials taught, including National Insights, Development of Motivation, Proxy War, Martial MP, and several other basic military materials.
"We have three stages of training. First, the stage of vacancy, to see the background of the participants. Second, the filling stage, finally the planting of the spirit of the corona. We collaborate on physical and mental strengthening techniques," said Sabdono.
On that occasion, the Minister of PUPR together with the Commander of Group 2 Kopassus also held a dexterity demonstration. Minister Basuki acted to break the concrete block, while the Kopassus Group 2 Commander broke the iron.
After closing state defense training, Basuki immediately reviewed the location for the construction of the Menjangan Embung in the Kopassus Group 2 Headquarters complex. Head of the Bengawan Solo River Basin Center (BBWS), Maryadi Utama, said the construction of the reservoir had been carried out since 2021.
"In 2022, the reservoir slopes will be strengthened," he said.
It is known that the construction of reservoirs in 2021 will be carried out with a contract value of IDR 14.9 billion. This reservoir has a capacity of 125,000 m3 covering an area of 2.69 hectares.
