"Dream - Acting Head of the Jakarta Education Agency Budi Awaluddin speaks up about the large number of honorary teachers in Jakarta who have been terminated. He stated that the honorary teachers who were affected by the cleansing are those who were appointed by school principals without following the appropriate regulations."

According to Budi, the honorary teachers who were affected by the cleansing were appointed based on the subjectivity of the school principal. The appointment disregarded the regulations and the applicable needs. "So what the school principals have been doing all this time, appointing honorary teachers without the knowledge of the Department of Education and not in accordance with the needs, their appointments were not published, and the appointments were subjective," he said.

He said, in the Minister of Education and Culture Regulation or Permendikbud, it is regulated that there are four criteria for teachers who can be funded with BOS funds. The details are not civil servants, listed in Dapodik, have NUPTK, and do not have teacher allowances. However, Honorary teachers who are affected by cleansing do not meet two of the existing criteria.
