akarta Governor Basuki 'Ahok' Tjahaja Purnama has issued a new regulation that will require city administration officials to wear white shirts and black trousers or skirts instead of the old green uniforms starting next week.
The change of uniform has been stipulated in newly issued Home Affairs Ministry Regulation No. 6/2016 on the third revision of Home Affairs Ministry Regulation No. 60/2007 on civil servants' uniforms. The regulation was issued on Feb. 6.
'We will apply it next week, so we will not see any green uniforms except when we have ceremonies,' Ahok said Wednesday as quoted by tempo.co.
He added that the new regulation would not be a burden for city officials as he was certain that most of them had at least one white shirt. 'During inauguration ceremonies they always wear white shirts and a suit,' he said.
