inp.polri.go.id – Criticism of the appearance of the Director of General Crime Investigation of National Police Criminal Investigation Agency, Brigadier General. Pol. Andi Rian R. Djajadi, when explaining the development of the case of Brigadier Joshua's murder, became valuable input for the personnel who act as spokespersons for the Indonesian National Police, Thursday, (08/09/22).
Netizens not only responded to what the one-star high-ranking officer said, but they also saw what hewears. Netizens criticized Brigadier General Andi for wearing luxury items, from top to bottom when he was giving press statements.
Currently what Police wears has been the spotlight in the mass media and social media. As the officials who was funded by the state, what they wear sometimes is not correspond with what they got from their salaries.
Of course, this criticism becomes a very valuable input for the Police, especially since there are already rules of the game within the Police that prohibit them from living a luxurious lifestyle in their daily lives.
Communications expert, Rahmat Edi Irawan, sees the need for anyone who serves as a spokesman for the National Police to no longer show their wealth or expensive assets.
"If necessary, everyone who speaks on behalf of the Polri institution should just wear their full Polri uniform. It is more official and does not cause a shift of focus on what is conveyed," he concluded.
