200 PPIDs in Java and Bali Join Bimtek in Bali

Bali, Geospatial News - A total of 200 Information and Documentation Management Officers (PPID) of ministries/institutions and regional governments of Java and Bali region follow Technical Guidance (Bimtek) for Management of Information and Documentation. Island of the Gods was chosen as the host of the bimtek.

"This activity aims to enable PPID to work professionally in order to serve and provide the information requested by the community," said Director of Governance and Public Communications Partnership of Selamatta Sembiring when opening the event at The Kuta Beach Heritage Hotel, Bali, Thursday, November 21, 2019.

Selamatta hopes, this bimtek can provide strengthening PPID functions in accordance with what is mandated by Law Number 14 of 2008 concerning Openness of Public Information. "We hope that after this technical guidance PPID can further improve public information services in their respective places," he said.

According to Selamatta, PPID must be able to provide information in the framework of public information disclosure wholeheartedly. Because access to public information is the right of the whole community.

"As professional as any PPID officer is, it's never useless to ask for information from the public because the knowledge they have cannot be put into practice," he added.

PPID Geospatial Information Agency (BIG) did not miss participating in studying in this bimtek. As one of the Non-Ministry Government Institutions (LPNK), BIG is committed to openly managing and distributing public information. (AR / NIN)
