Subdistrict council functions clarified<\/p>\n
From Warta Kota<\/p>\n
With reference to the letter to the editor published in Warta
\nKota on Aug. 2, questioning the function of subdistrict councils
\n(Dekel), we would like to explain as follows:<\/p>\n
Dekel were set up on the basis of Law No.34\/1999 on the
\nprovincial administration of Jakarta, with the aim of assisting
\nthe subdistrict head to perform executive duties in a
\ntransparent, democratic and public-oriented manner.<\/p>\n
In carrying out council activities, each Dekel member receives
\na monthly honorarium of Rp 500,000, starting from the date of
\ninstallation, as stipulated in Gubernatorial Decision
\nNo.125\/2001.<\/p>\n
The public complaint about the lack of information on Dekel
\njob descriptions should not have been made because the councils
\nhave existed for around four years and their functions should
\ntherefore be familiar to the public.<\/p>\n
In addition, Dekel have been engaged in regular meetings and
\ndialogs, in which their members exchange views with local
\ncitizens on a variety of local matters, including the
\nresponsibilities of their members.<\/p>\n
