Bad public officials must go<\/p>\n
From Koran Tempo<\/p>\n
Some people with a preconceived notion of President Megawati
\nSoekarnoputri must have cynically looked upon her request that
\npublic officials incapable of carrying out their duties resign.
\nFew public officials realize that they are not fit for their
\npositions.<\/p>\n
It must be borne in mind, however, that this request came from
\nthe President of the country and will therefore have an
\nadministrative effect on the evaluation of public officials. I
\nbelieve we will shortly see changes in strategic positions in
\norder to ensure that qualified and professional people will be
\nput in the right jobs.<\/p>\n
In this context, it is advisable that public officials who
\nrealize that they are not fit for their job tender their
\nresignations. True that this is a rare occurrence in Indonesia,
\nbut a public official will show real heroism if he gives up his
\njob because he realizes he is not up to it.<\/p>\n
President Megawati's statement is a groundbreaking development
\nfor the practice of giving up your job when you are unable to
\nfulfill its requirements. A public official who resigns because
\nhe knows he is not up to his job is a true hero of the reform
\nmovement.<\/p>\n
Let's just wait and see how public officials respond to the
\nPresident's request.<\/p>\n
