"Congratulations on being the Regional Secretary of DKI. Of course, in the future there are many things that need to be resolved, coordinated, and problems that must be handled," said Heru at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Wednesday, February 15.

Heru admitted that he believed that Joko could carry out his duties as the Regional Secretary of DKI well. "I believe you will carry out your duties as well as possible according to the responsibilities given," he continued.

At the same time, Heru also appointed Bayu Meghantara as Head of the DKI Jakarta Parks and Forestry Service. Bayu previously served as Head of the Bureau of Organization and Bureaucratic Reform of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Secretariat.

It is known that Joko is a former Head of Representative of the Bali Province Supreme Audit Agency (BPK). Joko replaces the position of Acting Secretary of DKI, Uus Kuswanto, who is also the Assistant for People's Welfare of the DKI Provincial Secretariat who has been inaugurated since December 2, 2022.

The appointment of Joko as the Regional Secretary of DKI is contained in Presidential Decree (Keppres) Number 13/TPA of 2023 concerning the Appointment of Middle High Leadership Officials within the Provincial Government (Pemprov) of DKI Jakarta which was signed by Jokowi on February 13, 2023.

The nine bidders in the position are officials of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. Meanwhile, Joko is the only external official in the capital city.

Various stages of selection are passed. Until the last stage, namely interviews with the selection committee, there are three names left. Joko's name persists. These three names were brought by the DKI Provincial Government to the Palace to be selected by one of them by Jokowi, to be sworn in by Heru.

When elected, Joko canceled two other candidates for the selection of the DKI Regional Secretary who also passed a number of selection stages, namely Dhany Sukma who is currently the Mayor of Central Jakarta, and Michael Rolandi Cesnanta Brata who is currently the Head of the DKI Jakarta Regional Asset Management Agency.
