摘要:An important agency of the government is its civil service or bureaucracy. The civil
service has the potential to empower a government to achieve a country¡¯s goals, that is,
to improve its citizens¡¯ standard of living. The ability of a civil service to successfully
support the government depends heavily on the characteristics of the civil service. In the
case of Indonesia, the civil service is slow; lacks transparency, accountability, and
initiative; and is sometimes corrupt. Therefore Indonesia¡¯s civil service is badly in need
of reform, both in relation to its institutional aspects as well as in relation to moral
issues...
