Jakarta, InfoPublik - Minister of Home Affairs Tjahjo Kumolo urged local governments to synergize with central government in order to realize development acceleration.

"Central government’s strategic program  should engage regional level and vice versa, regional governments’ program should support central government program," the Minister said  in a press release on Wednesday (1/3).

According to Home Minister, every region must strengthen the development of infrastructure in order to increase the leverage of their leading sectors. "Without adequate and qualified infrastructure, it is impossible to achieve the development target," he said.

He expected every development planning in the region to be formulated by considering budget control and implementation.

"We need to synchronize  national development plan with regional development so that national development program can  reach all level, from central to village," he added. (Translator: Sugiarti)
