More regency staff in Bogor

BOGOR (JP): The local administration is expecting an influx of
4,700 employees from ministries' regional offices liquidated when
regional autonomy is implemented in January, an official said on
Thursday.

The chairman of the special committee in charge of the
administrative structure at the regency office, Rachmat Yasin,
said the additional staff would make a total of 20,000 people
employed by the regency administration.

"I think this number is still ideal since there are four
million people who live in the regency," Rachmat said.

Rachmat said the central government, through the Bogor
administration, would allocate Rp 200 billion in next year's
budget to pay the salaries of the 20,000 employees. (21/jaw)
