Bogor employs 116 former Kamra

BOGOR (JP): Bogor municipal administration has admitted 116
former people's security (Kamra) personnel for various jobs on a
short-term contract basis only.

An assistant for administrative reform, Jani Permadi, said on
Wednesday that 46 of the new recruits would be placed at the land
traffic and transportation agency, 44 at the city hall as public
order officers and the rest at the trade and industry agency.

The former Kamra officers are undergoing a two-day workshop
until Thursday along with another 19 recruits.

There were 681 Kamra personnel in the mayoralty until the
government decided to terminate their contracts on Dec. 31 last
year.

Bogor Mayor Iswara Natanegara said, while opening the
workshop, that the new recruits would help his administration
promote public order. He said people often break regulations as
they misinterpreted the reform spirit. (21)
