Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment and Bureaucratic Reform Rini\nWidyantini has emphasised that bureaucratic transformation cannot rely\nsolely on technology and regulation, but also requires the character,\nexperience, and exemplary conduct of state apparatus who have dedicated\ntheir service.
