A Ministry of National Development Planning’s official has said that offices for state civil apparatus at the new national capital Nusantara would be developed as co-working spaces.
“Unlike in Jakarta where apparatus of one institution hosted at only one office, we will transform the state apparatus working approach by constructing office towers that would host various institutions in the new capital,” the Ministry of National Development Planning/National Development Planning Agency’s deputy for political, legal, defence, and security affairs Slamet Soedarsono said in a webinar on the capital relocation here on Friday.
The working mode transformation at the new capital would be enhanced by digital-based flexible working arrangements to encourage an informal, interactive, and casual working environment free of office dividers, he said.
The authority would also implement the electronic-based governance system by preparing the main application and simplifying inter-governance sector business processes, the deputy noted.
He also highlighted that the relocation of the national capital to Nusantara would develop a new momentum to adopt a smart governance approach.
Nusantara will be a “…global city for all, with effective governance that would be the national symbol and identity. Nusantara will also be a sustainable city and the driving force of the national economy,” Soedarsono said.
To achieve the three main goals of the new capital, the government would simplify business processes and the digital ecosystem to bolster multisectoral transformation, as well as bolstering state apparatus coordination and management through enhancing competence and provision of monetary and non-monetary incentives, he remarked.
Soedarsono said that the authority has also conceived two apparatus relocation schemes to the national capital, while the two schemes would see 118,000 or 180,000 state apparatus relocated to Nusantara, depending on the adopted scheme.
