Letter to a Editor: For Jakarta Deputy Governor, a Post-Meeting Memo | The Jakarta Globe
Thursday afternoon, during around 6:15 p.m., was a unpleasant impulse for me, a proprietor of Jakarta who had a noble goal of assembly with his emissary administrator to provide submit upon efforts to overcome a city's most problems. we appreciated a actuality which Deputy Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama obviously wanted to rivet with citizens as well as had quickly concluded to a meeting. But a knowledge soon incited into a bitter one given of a inapt function of a emissary administrator as well as a participation of individuals who were not officials though who appeared to have an disdainful right to be inside a operative bureau of a emissary governor.
As a adult hoping for a sign which there would be something different compared to a care of a prior governor, we came with ideas we thought estimable of care such as a short-term answer to Jakarta's scandalous trade congestion.
I am fully aware which we am no consultant in city planning, or an consultant in overcoming travel problems. But as a proprietor of a city, ! we feel called to contribute to progress. The thought due may not have been a holistic solution, though a personality should during a little indicate have a bravery to make a decision, no make a difference how hard this is, rsther than than basking in a never-ending discourse. Residents have been tired of conference their leaders protest or censure any other. What residents have been watchful for have been new thing policies which could during slightest vigilance which there is an bid by a supervision to urge conditions.
Back to a ambience during a assembly which afternoon.
After a little brief tiny talk, we presented a thought to assistance revoke overload by vehicle-color-based restrictions upon certain roads an thought which we have presented upon assorted occasions given 2010. For this Thursday afternoon, we had prepared a paper explaining this effort, which we was to hand over to a emissary administrator after a brief presentation.
The crux of my thinking is which whatever a policy undertaken by a government, it should during slightest uncover a open which it has a bravery to try as well as take steps which could be implemented in a brief period of time. The most logical solution, we think, is to manage a trade based upon a limitation upon vehicles. Of course, a supervision should during a same time work hard to hope for a resolution which is some-more holistic as well as long-term.
However, we had not even finished my reason of a categorical points before a emissary administrator interrupted to say which there already is an contentment of studies upon how to assuage a city's congestion. Some in a regulatory form, others involving a rejuvenation of a swift of city buses as well as also long-term solutions by improved government of macro travel patterns. But yes or no choice is made, these have been not short-term solutions, as all would need time. Each offer has a own weakness as well as could prompt protests from a open if implemented.
I do assimilate what a emissar! y admini strator was saying about a difficulties a authorities were facing, though as a leader, it would have been good if a emissary administrator had been means to attend enthusiastically as well as respectfully paying full attention to his review partner as well as permitting him to make his point.
But what happened instead? The emissary governor's warm as well as accessible welcome was quickly overshadowed by a incident which was positively not estimable of a emissary administrator as well as his tighten entourage. While we was explaining a reasons for a revisit which afternoon to try as well as assistance emanate short-term breakthroughs to quell trade overload a emissary administrator was bustling typing upon his BlackBerry.
I primarily thought a emissary administrator was bustling estimate my input, though it incited out which he was in actuality communicating with others. Even some-more unpleasant was which whilst a emissary administrator was bustling with his own thoughts, a member of his staff repeatedly interrupted a review as well as addressed a emissary administrator using a "loe-gue" jargon for "you" as well as "me." we unequivocally did not get a impression which we was in a bureau of a emissary governor. Civility as well as protocol were simply ignored. This is something which is unsuitable in a culture.
The emissary governor's try to essay for egalitarianism, to not overly crave apply oneself as well as to try to avoid extreme protocol is worthy as well as should be supported. However, this does not mean which in a courteous society, a emissary governor's operative environment can do away with a suggestion of respecting a institution of a emissary administrator as a pitch of leadership. The loe-gue jargon is ideally excusable in every day interaction, though it is not suitable for use in a official environment of a personality like a capital city's emissary governor.
The encounter offers a valuable doctrine for those who have selected to work at their lives to o! pen serv ice: sense to be a purpose model for a people, sense to listen. And stop complaining as well as blaming any other, given right away is a time to unequivocally do something.
