        "summary": "A Jakarta legislator has urged authorities to protect Satpol PP officers after 35 members died within a year due to excessive workloads and inadequate rest facilities, emphasising that the state must safeguard rather than merely demand from its public servants. He called for a comprehensive review involving the provincial government, personnel agencies, and budget planners to implement humane working patterns, gradual staff increases, proper field rest areas, and routine health protections. Deputy Governor Rano Karno supported adding personnel to the understaffed force, noting the heavy burden currently affecting officers' health.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Member of Commission A of the DKI Jakarta DPRD,\nKevin Wu, emphasised that the DKI Jakarta Civil Service Police Unit\n(Satpol PP) must not become victims of an unprepared working system\nfollowing the death of 35 members within a year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSatpol PP must not become victims of an unprepared system. The state\nis obliged to be present to protect them, not just to demand that they\nwork,\u201d Kevin said when contacted on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the deaths of dozens of DKI Satpol PP members in a\nyear, linked to workload burdens and minimal rest facilities, cannot be\nconsidered normal.<\/p>\n<p>This indicates real issues in human resource management and field\noperational support. This problem is not solely the responsibility of\nDKI Satpol PP, but the Regional Personnel Agency (BKD) also needs to pay\nattention to it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt must be viewed more broadly, starting from the DKI Provincial\nGovernment as a whole, including the BKD which regulates personnel needs\nand distribution, Bappeda in planning budget priorities, BPKD in\nproviding financial support, to the Governor as the regional leader in\ndetermining policy direction,\u201d Kevin stated.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, Kevin hopes this can be addressed immediately.\nImprovements must start from evaluating work patterns to make them more\nhumane, gradual addition of personnel, provision of adequate field rest\nfacilities, to routine health protection for members.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will also monitor this in future budget discussions and\nperformance evaluations. The point is, we cannot talk about city order\nwhile ignoring the condition of the people who maintain that order\nthemselves,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Rano Karno approved the\nproposal to add personnel to the DKI Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol\nPP), which is currently still under ideal levels.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cImagine, even firefighters need 11,000 personnel. If Satpol PP\nrequests 5,000, it might be possible, but gradually,\u201d Rano said in\nJakarta on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to the 35 Satpol PP members who died in a year, Rano said\nthis also needs attention.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, he assessed that adding Satpol PP personnel is\nnecessary because the current number is still below ideal, making the\nworkload quite heavy and impacting health conditions.<\/p>",
