Dudung: Cross-sector coordination key to resolving priority programme obstacles
Presidential Chief of Staff General (Ret.) Dudung Abdurachman has said that cross-sector coordination facilitated by the Presidential Staff Office (KSP) is key to accelerating the resolution of various obstacles in the implementation of President Prabowo Subianto’s priority programmes.
During a working visit to Bandung, West Java, on Wednesday, Dudung said the KSP ensures that every presidential directive is translated into programmes that can be implemented, monitored for progress, and resolved when facing obstacles on the ground.
“In our duties at the KSP, what we do is resolve various issues so that the President’s priority programmes can run well,” he said while delivering a public lecture to Regular Education Officer Students Batch LXVIII at the Army Staff and Command School (Seskoad).
According to him, obstacle resolution is carried out through coordination across ministries, agencies, regional governments, business entities, and law enforcement officials so that decisions can be taken quickly and in an integrated manner.
He cited the resolution of obstacles to gas development in Muara Enim, South Sumatra, coal supply for power plants in Java, and the Work Plan and Budget (RKAB) of PT Timah through coordination forums facilitated by the KSP.
“We bring together all relevant parties so that issues can be resolved jointly without dragging on due to sectoral egos,” he said.
In addition, the KSP has also facilitated the resolution of obstacles to land use for oil well development in Bojonegoro, land issues for sugarcane farmers in Way Kanan, the construction of a toll road to Jambi, and the acceleration of exports of mining products containing rare earth metals.
Dudung said the successful resolution of these various issues demonstrates the importance of inter-agency synergy in supporting the implementation of national strategic programmes while providing certainty for the public and the business community.
“A leader must have vision, innovation, and the courage to make decisions in order to bring about real change in every assignment,” he said.
Through this briefing, the KSP hopes that Seskoad Officer Students will have an adaptive, collaborative, and problem-solving-oriented leadership perspective to support the successful implementation of national strategic programmes.
