To face this condition, Arifin says that we have make breakthroughs and find new ways in dealing with things.

All members of KORPRI, continues Arifin, must keep on creating innovation to speed up public service. Bureaucratic red tape that confuse people must immediately cut off. "No more old-fashioned mindset, linear work, and routine work. Bureaucracy must change and we must build new values by working fast and adapting to changes," he added.

In addition, he urges KORPRI members to stand in the front line of the nation's unity. "I ask all members of KORPRI throughout Indonesia to stand in the front line of our nation's unity, to maintain the spirit of brotherhood and sisterhood with our fellow citizens," Arifin ended. (IY)
