As one of the largest and most dynamic countries in the region, Indonesia recognizes the
need to strengthen its civil service and make it more efficient in order to meet its national
targets and keep it on the growth path.
Indonesia has a large civil service. In 2005, there were 3.74 million civil servants in
Indonesia, with each employee serving around 58 – 59 citizens.1 This number is estimated
to have reached 4.5 million in 2017.2 The country employs the Combination Scale System
(Sistem Skala Gabungan) to justify the salaries given, which is determined by the type of job,
standard of living, and level of responsibility.
Civil Service Coverage Includes the Indonesian military, Police of the Republic of
Indonesia, central civil servants and regional civil servants
