– National Police chief
Gen. Tito Karnavian pointed to the increased welfare of all police officers
throughout the country and the improved public image of police institutions in
an address at a ceremony to commemorate the anniversary of
the National Police
on Monday, all of which he said was the result of President Joko “Jokowi”
Widodo’s leadership.
Tito told the ceremony that the police had
set up two new police branches – the West Sulawesi Police and the West Papua
Police – during Jokowi’s three-year presidency.
During that time, the police also set up 11
new precinct offices, 99 new subprecinct offices and another 144 new subsector
posts.
Tito added that state funds allocated to
support the National Police had doubled to Rp 84 trillion (US$6.3 billion) this
year from Rp 44 trillion in previous years.
He also used the occasion to praise the
Jokowi administration’s Healthcare and Social Security Agency (BPJS Kesehatan),
claiming that the program had helped to ease the financial burdens felt by
police officers in accessing health facilities.
“We are really thankful for what Bapak President [Jokowi] and Bapak Vice President [Jusuf Kalla] have
done to improve our institution,” Tito told those in attendance at National
Monument square in Central Jakarta.
“The National Police will continue to improve
our performance and professionalism,” he added.***
