Moreover, I can send people to ask for service. We can assess the officer by this action
"Hereby, I inaugurate the High Primary Leadership Position, Administrator, and the Supervisor in Jakarta Provincial Government area. I believe you can finish the task as well as possible," said Basuki while reading the inauguration speech.
Basuki reminded to all officers not to pretend in front of the citizens, because the city government will provide the sufficient income for them. Every urban village head will receive salary of Rp 33 million, while the staff will get Rp 9 million.

Basuki also asked the officer who work at health service and education to give the best service for Jakarta citizens. "Could you imagine if our brother or sister gets the bad health service? I want the health center and integrated health post (posyandu) in Jakarta to give better service. If you cannot provide it, just ask to work at library or cemetery," he continued.
To monitor the officer, Basuki stated, his side will receive the report from citizens. "Moreover, I can send people to ask for service. We can assess the officer by this action," stated the former Regent of East Belitung.
He added, his side will evaluate all work of the inaugurated officials. "It means, the officer will be evaluated immediately, not in three months. If they have bad performance in the next week, I will demote them as a staff. We better wrong to demote people than wrong to give a position to people," he explained.
The five echelon II officials who inaugurated today are Irvan Amtha as Head of Provincial Goods and Services Procurement, Indrastuty Rosari Okita as Vice of One Stop Service Agency (BPTSP), Fridayanti as the Vice Director of Human Resources at RSUD Tarakan, Yessy Widiastuti as Vice Director of Financial and Public of RSUD Tarakan, and Yudi Amiarno as the Vice Service Director of RSUD Tarakan.
