Sworn translator

Sworn translator

In July 1994, a few friends and I registered for an
examination to become sworn translators to be held in September
and October 1994.

On Sept. 26, 1994, the examination was held at the University
of Indonesia's School of Letters in Depok. In February 1995 an
announcement at the Management Bureau of Jakarta listed the names
of those who passed the test. In June 1995, I received a letter
from the UI School of Letters, informing me that my name was
included in Decree No 527/1995 of the Governor of Jakarta and we
should refer to the bureau for the decree and to take the oath.

I have contacted the bureau several times, only to be told
that the Governor does not have time. I am certainly aware that
the Governor has a very busy schedule, however, if he cannot
spare an hour or even less for this important event, would it not
be possible for him to delegate this matter to one of his
deputies?
