Quality of leaders

Quality of leaders

From Media Indonesia

The article in Media Indonesia (June 28, 1995) containing the
main ideas of the Governor of the National Resilience Institute
(Lemhannas), Let. Gen. Moetojib, presented at the House of
Representatives has prompted me to make some comments.

According to him, there are good leaders and bad leaders. He
further said that the future leaders are expected to come from
Lemhannas.

I hope he was not exaggerating. It is true that Lemhannas
graduates have greater chances to be picked up as ministers. But,
I think we all agree that a minister should be more than a
Lemhannas graduate. It is much more important for a minister to
have a thorough knowledge of the job, whether he/she is a
Lemhannas graduate or not. Also a minister or a leader should
have a moral obligation to take care of the people's interests.
