Abstract

The view of merit as a new basic system for public personnel management is already final in the newest regulation of ASN (National State Apparatus), and one kind of implementation of merit in the management system is recruitment and selection. Although the new regulation of public personnel management mandate the open competition for selecting top level position as promotion based merit, the question is, is the procedure already merit? Or is the competition itself already merit? This paper analyzes the executive open selection based merit implementation in local government. Executive here introduces as a high leader position (Jabatan Pimpinan Tinggi or ‘JPT') in bureaucracy. Using the case study of West Java Province as the earliest province among the local governances which held the open competition system for JPT, the author hopes this paper can give the real picture on the implementation of merit through the open selection system. The research objectives are to see the implementation of merit in open competition model of JPT and obstacles of the process, to analyze and to criticize the procedure based on theory. After analyzing the fact or real situation of the open competition procedure, this paper proposes better procedures or methods to be more merit and as the basis to have the right decisions for promoting or hiring someone to be JPT.
