        "summary": "A member of the House of Representatives Commission II, Muhammad Khozin, has urged civil servants (ASN) to sustain productivity while implementing work-from-home (WFH) policies every Friday, emphasising the need for regular evaluations and consistent oversight by ministries, agencies, and local governments. He highlighted concerns over Friday's selection as the WFH day potentially creating long weekends but advocated using this as an opportunity to improve public transportation and reduce pollution through cross-ministerial coordination. Minister Rini Widyantini of the Ministry of State Apparatus Utilization and Bureaucratic Reform announced ongoing performance evaluations via the eKinerja system, with ASN required to keep their smartphones active for location tracking during work hours.",

To maintain ASN\nproductivity, he encouraged periodic supervision and evaluation of those\nworking from home. \u201cWe request that the WFH implementation carried out\nevery Friday be evaluated periodically and supervised consistently by\nministries and agencies as well as regional governments,\u201d Khozin said.\nHe himself highlighted the choice of Friday as the day for working from\nhome, which he deemed not ideal and potentially turning into a long\nweekend. Nevertheless, he urged the government to utilise this momentum\nto seriously design better public transportation in the regions. \u201cIn the\nimplementation of this WFH, it is not merely a bureaucratic matter, but\nrelated to public transportation and the momentum for pollution control\nin the regions. Cross-ministerial and agency coordination must be\ncarried out. Once again, this momentum must be utilised for the common\ngood,\u201d Khozin stated. On a different occasion, the Minister of State\nApparatus Utilization and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB), Rini Widyantini,\nis preparing performance evaluations for ASN following the\nwork-from-home policy every Friday. \u201cFor all ASN, we will continue to\nconduct evaluations of PPPK and evaluations of performance,\u201d Rini said\nin a press conference. \u201cWe have provided eKinerja, where every\ngovernment agency has a direct link to use performance assessments\nthrough the eKinerja provided by the State Civil Service Agency,\u201d Rini\nadded. ASN undergoing WFH every Friday are required to keep their mobile\nphones active during working hours. This regulation is enforced so that\nthe presence of ASN can be monitored through the location feature\navailable on every smartphone.<\/p>",
