This is really a very very wonderful and refreshing news! I just found out that a not so famous big town somewhere in Central Java Province has pioneered in building a one stop service for all public services there.

It has been a public secret that bureaucracy in Indonesia is so unbelievable that there’s a saying, "If it can be made difficult, why make it easy?" Not making a head nor tail about it? Well, there are zillions of cases, actually, which show how annoying bureaucracy is most of the times. We don’t just spend so much time and money for something so easy, such as renewing our Identity Card, but also our patience and anger. No wonder Indonesia is in rank 89 out of 119 countries in public service.

With one stop service this town has, all the citizens do just prepare all the documents needed, show up there, choose which service we’d like to arrange, and the officer will tell how many days the needed ID Card and everything will be finished. It won’t take long and the faster is the better, it really is their motto! I heard that a few big town and cities are following this great example. Still a few but who knows?  

So, who says I am a dreamer? :)
