Anies Invites Millennials to Become DKI Jakarta Civil Servants with Salaries Reaching Rp18 Million: Is it True?

The Governor of Jakarta, Anies Baswedan, invited millennials to become civil servants (PNS) in the Jakarta Provincial Government. He mentioned that the salary would be in the tens of millions of rupiah per month.

“Are there any of you who want to become a civil servant? In Jakarta, fresh graduates with a Bachelor's degree can earn between Rp12-18 million per month, which is very competitive with the private sector,” said Anies while attending the Jakarta Future of Work talk show, quoting from the Jakarta Provincial Government's YouTube channel on Thursday (25/8/2022).

The current PNS salary is regulated in Government Regulation (PP) Number 15 of 2019. According to the regulation, the lowest grade is recorded at Rp1,560,800 and the highest at Rp5,901,200.

This PNS salary does not include Performance-Based Allowance (TPP) or performance bonuses. The amount of TPP varies across institutions and regions. This allowance is what differentiates the total income received by PNS each month.
