Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Indonesian Marine Corps is preparing various\ntypes of training materials, from weapons to national defence, to be\ngiven to participants in the reserve component (Komcad) training program\nfrom civil servants (ASN).<\/p>\n
This will be provided by the Marine Corps after the Ministry of\nDefence (Kemhan) partnered with Pasmar I to train the first wave of ASN\nKomcad in April 2026.<\/p>\n
Head of the Marine Corps\u2019 Information Service, Colonel (Mar) Rana\nKaryana, told ANTARA in Jakarta on Friday that they had compiled several\nkey points of material to be given to the ASN Komcad participants.<\/p>\n
The materials include spiritual and ideological development,\ninstilling values of national defence, developing a spirit of struggle,\nproviding knowledge and skills, basic military regulations (foot drill,\nmilitary salutes, military ceremonies, and military service\nregulations), legal knowledge, weapons knowledge, maritime skills, and\nknowledge of maritime defence areas.<\/p>\n
Rana said that they had also prepared special Marine Corps-specific\nmaterials for the Komcad participants from the ASN.<\/p>\n
Some of the special materials that will be provided include\ninstilling high discipline and loyalty, building a never-give-up\nattitude and adaptability to pressure, basic survival skills, and field\nendurance, as well as knowledge of teamwork (esprit de corps).<\/p>\n
Rana said that knowledge of teamwork is important to provide, even\nthough the participants come from an ASN background.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe also provide knowledge about instilling values of honour and\nresponsibility as part of the state defence reserve component,\u201d said\nRana.<\/p>\n
Not only the materials, Rana also ensured that all the best\nfacilities, from fields, barracks, classrooms, and medical personnel\nbelonging to the Marine Corps, will be deployed to support the Komcad\ntraining.<\/p>\n
Although all the training concepts and facilities used are standard\nfrom the Marine Corps, Rana ensured that they will still adjust the\ntraining patterns for the ASN.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere will be adjustments to the aspects of comfort and security,\ngiven that the participants come from the civilian sector,\u201d said\nRana.<\/p>\n
Rana hopes that all the facilities and lessons that have been\nprepared by the Marine Corps can support the Komcad ASN training process\nso that it can run optimally.<\/p>\n
Previously, the Ministry of Defence stated that 2,000 ASN who will\nparticipate in the training as Komcad will be trained at five TNI\ntraining locations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe implementation of the first wave of training is planned to take\nplace at several educational locations, including Pusdikkes, Skadik 301,\nPusbahasa AU, Kodam Jaya, and Pasmar 1,\u201d said Head of the Defence\nInformation Bureau (Karo Infohan) of the Ministry of Defence\nSecretariat, Brigadier General TNI Rico Ricardo Sirait, to ANTARA in\nJakarta on Thursday (26\/2).<\/p>\n
Rico said that the ASN will be trained on the basics of military\ntraining, both in practice and in theory.<\/p>\n
The training process for this wave will begin in April 2026 and will\nlast for approximately 1.5 months.<\/p>\n
Rico added that the Ministry of Defence provides a quota of 4,000\npeople for all ministries and agencies that want to send their ASN to\nparticipate in the Komcad training.<\/p>\n
The first wave of training is planned for 2,000 ASN, and the second\nwave with the same number will be held in mid-2026.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/marine-corps-prepares-a-series-of-training-materials-for-asn-reserve-component-participants-1772162187", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
