Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB) of the Republic of Indonesia Prof. Dr. Yuddy Chrisnandi, ME became a resource person in the National Panel Discussion with the theme 'Governance for National Independence' at Brawijaya University (UB) Malang, Monday (12/10). According to him, government officials must be able to serve the public well, not the other way around.

Minister Yuddy said that a good bureaucracy is a simple and uncomplicated bureaucracy, therefore a mental revolution is needed to create a good bureaucracy. Currently, all countries in the world continue to try to improve to achieve a good bureaucracy, including in Indonesia.
"Currently, the task of state apparatus is how to provide the best service to the community, there should no longer be any government apparatus asking to be served by the community," explained Minister Yuddy, Monday (12/10).
Through this method, Minister Yuddy is sure that the government apparatus will be loved by the people, so that the bureaucracy can be better to create the people's welfare together. "To be able to create a good bureaucracy is indeed not easy, it requires a long process and consistency in running it," he added.
On this occasion at UB, Minister Yuddy also reminded the readiness of the bureaucracy including in Malang City to be able to run the regional head elections (pilkada) simultaneously. Because the simultaneous pilkada is still new and will be held in 2016, various socializations are needed so that the pilkada can run well. (cah/yon)
