REJANG LEBONG - The government of Rejang Lebong Regency, Bengkulu, has removed the position of a state civil servant (ASN) from the head of the division at the Satpol PP office. This individual resisted when his family's celebration was dissolved.
Regional Secretary (Sekda) Rejang Lebong, RA Denni, said that the ASN person was transferred to another office staff.
"The actions carried out by these individuals are considered serious violations, according to the policy of the regent in question, he was suspended from his position," he said, quoted by Antara, Friday, July 23.
Denni explained that this ASN person was considered to have opposed the Rejang Lebong Regent's policy regarding the implementation of restrictions on community activities (PPKM) which prohibited ASN and honorary employees from conducting or attending celebration activities.
The chronology of incidents of violations by ASN personnel began with the dissolution of the celebration event by the COVID-19 Handling Task Force Team.
"It was his family who held the party, not the person directly involved. When the team visited to disband the celebration party, this person was opposed to it. Even though the Rejang Lebong Regent Circular clearly states that ASN or honorary employees cannot hold or attend crowds," explained Denni.
The imposition of strict sanctions on these ASN persons is to draw the attention of ASN and honorary staff within the Rejang Lebong Regency Government in order to comply with government policies that are implementing PPKM to suppress the spread of COVID-19.
"ASN should be an example in the community, especially with regard to complying with health protocols and educating the public regarding the importance of PPKM to suppress the transmission of COVID-19 in Rejang Lebong Regency," said Denni.
