Jakarta Governor, Basuki “Ahok” T Purnama, demanded every urban village head to have a leadership style like housing manager.

I ask you to lead as if you were a housing manager. You should be able to solve problems in your area, such as malfunctioned street lights. Just instruct SKPD or department to fix it

Ahok disclosed that they can coordinate with the regional working unit (SKPD) or department to solve their problem in the area.

"I ask you to lead as if you were a housing manager. You should be able to solve problems in your area, such as malfunctioned street lights. Just instruct SKPD or department to fix it,” he uttered, on the sidelines of  inauguration of Cililitan Child-Friendly Integrated Public Space (RPTRA), Jalan Buluh RW 16, Cililitan Urban Village, Kramatjati, Thursday (10/22).

He asserted that they can report uncooperative SKPD or d epartment to Mayor. “Department act as a consultant and contractor if they aren’t cooperative just report to Mayor or me or I will dismiss them,” he asserted.

He asserted let the suffering of the people is crueler than to fire officials who revel in the suffering of the people.

“It doesn’t mean I am cruel, but let people suffering are crueler,” he uttered.
