In his speech, Heri Radison emphasized the importance of implementing good governance. According to him, every stage in the performance accountability cycle from planning, agreement, monitoring, reporting, to performance evaluation is an activity that must be carried out with the best quality to ensure accountable, agile, and reliable government.

Competent human resources are an important asset for agencies in the face of fast-moving developments in policy and science. “Performance accountability training like this is very important, especially now, so that employees have the skills needed to support the progress of the agency,” said Heri.

He emphasized the importance of active participation of all participants in this training, so that the provisions obtained can be used to improve the accountability and performance of the Directorate General of Pharmaceuticals.
