Today, nearly<br>\nall of our middle and senior management positions are filled by<br>\nhighly capable Indonesian professionals, many of whom have been<br>\nwith us an average of five years. In comparison, expatriates form<br>\nless than 0.007 percent of our total workforce of 680 employees.<\/p>\n<p>The quality of professionals is also a function of a company's<br>\ncommitment to help its people develop to their fullest potential.<br>\nAgain, at PT Birotika Semesta we ensure that we support our<br>\nprofessional managers in every possible way through comprehensive<br>\nand on-going development programs.<\/p>\n<p>I believe all of this has contributed to the success we have<br>\nhad in finding and retaining the high-caliber local talent which<br>\nis vital for a service oriented business such as ours.<\/p>\n<p>We need to recognize that the issue of the quality of<br>\nprofessionals is not unique to Indonesia. This is an issue that<br>\nexists in many other emerging economies around the world,<br>\nincluding Southeast Asia. It would, therefore, be a grave<br>\ninjustice to perpetuate the misperception that \"Indonesian<br>\nprofessionals are not ready for competition\".<\/p>\n<p>ERNA MUKTI, Human Resources Manager, PT Birotika Semesta\/DHL, Jakarta<\/p>",
