Member of Commission II of the DPR from the National Awakening Party\n(PKB) faction, Ali Ahmad, stated he has received information that 2,722\nstate civil apparatus (ASN) have submitted resignations during the first\nhalf of this year, up to Semester I-2026. \u201cWe received information that\n2,722 ASN have submitted requests for termination at their own request,\u201d\nAli said in a statement on the PKB Faction website, quoted on Thursday\n(13\/8\/2026).<\/p>\n
The total number of ASN who resigned, as recorded by the National\nCivil Service Agency (BGN), consists of 1,197 civil servants (PNS),\n1,146 part-time government employees with work agreements (PPPK), 227\nfull-time PPPK, and 152 candidate civil servants (CPNS).<\/p>\n
According to Ali, the departure of thousands of state employees\nshould not be underestimated or simply regarded as an individual\ndecision. He noted that the state has expended significant resources in\nthe recruitment, selection, and competency development processes for\nthese employees. \u201cLosing talent is not a trivial matter because the\nstate has invested heavily in their recruitment process and individual\ncapacity development. Moreover, this phenomenon could disrupt the\nstability of public services because recruiting new employees takes\ntime,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Given this phenomenon of ASN resignations, Ali believes the\ngovernment must comprehensively map the driving factors behind the\nresignations, ranging from systemic aspects such as career development\npatterns, placement mismatches, welfare systems and workload, to\npersonal issues. He reminded the government to evaluate the demographics\nof the departing employees, particularly if the phenomenon is prevalent\namong young talent with relatively short tenures.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is certainly a phenomenon whose cause must be investigated\nimmediately. This issue should not be considered trivial, as ASN are one\nof the important instruments in running the government,\u201d Ali Ahmad\nstated. Furthermore, Commission II of the DPR RI also reminded\ngovernment agencies to anticipate potential vacancies in strategic\npositions that could paralyse the effectiveness of public services and\nburden the remaining employees.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe government must ensure that every resignation does not create a\nvacancy in vital services. Employees should not leave without a\nreplacement being readily available, causing the workload to shift to\nother employees and ultimately impacting the public,\u201d stressed the\nlegislator from the East Java electoral district.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/dpr-receives-report-of-2-722-civil-servants-resigning-1786603920", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
