Functional Staff of Human Relations in Difficulty to Get Promotion

In 2005, the Department of Education recruited general staff into functional staff of public relations. However, for some reason until now many of the employees have not been promoted. This was recently revealed in a small discussion of participants of Advanced Training of Educational Staff in Public Relations in Pontianak, West Kalimantan recently. "Since recruited as a functional employee of the Public Relations in 2005 until now I have not been promoted to the next rank," said Syarif Abdul Rahman, Public Relations staff at the University of Tanjung Pura, West Kalimantan.

 

The same thing is true for Nurdin of State Polytechnic Pontianak.Nurdin once sumbitted some credit points, but due to not enough points, his promotion is suspended. When asked why he has not been promoted, he replied as experiencing difficulty in preparing the credit points. In contrast, Waladan Mardijja, S.Esy of Bogor Agricultural University (IPB) since his recruitment, has filed three times the number of credit points, and also been promoted three times.

 

At the end of the training organized by the Directorate General of Higher Education, Ministry of Education and Culture, the participants agreed to revive the communication forum for accomodating relationship. The participants agreed to elect as Chairman of the Forum, Mr. Waluya Suprihartono, SH from IPB. The discussion was attended not only by the traning participants of public relations of higher educations in Indonesia but also by the Head of Public Relations of the State University of Semarang (UNES), Sucipto Hadi Purnomo, who supports the organization revival.
