PORTALJABAR, BOGOR REGENCY - Bogor Regent Rudy Susmanto invited the Regional Executive Board (DPD) of the Indonesian National Youth Committee (KNPI) of Bogor Regency to unite and strengthen collaboration in developing the region.

This was conveyed when receiving an audience and socializing with the Chairperson and management of the Bogor Regency KNPI DPD, at the Bogor Regent's Pendopo, Monday (3/3/2026).

Present were the Head of the Youth and Sports Service, the Head of DPMPTSP, the Head of the Social Service, the Head of the Finance Section of the Council Secretariat, the Head of the Economic Section of the Regional Secretariat, and the Head of Tamansari District.

In his remarks, Rudy expressed his pride in the alumni of the Bogor Regency KNPI who have succeeded in occupying good positions within the Bogor Regency Government and outside the government.

According to him, this is proof that KNPI is a youth cadre training forum that produces quality figures.

"Anyone who is trained at the KNPI Bogor Regency is a great young man who will contribute to building Bogor Regency and the Indonesian nation," he said.

He also expressed his desire for youth organizations in Bogor Regency to be united. He believes that a region's future is determined not only by its natural resource wealth or financial strength, but also by the quality and critical thinking of its young generation.

"The existence of a solid and active youth organization is very important in supporting development," Rudy emphasized.

He continued, stating that differences in opinion are natural. However, differences should not be allowed to divide the organization. Success, he argued, lies in uniting differences into a common strength. The Bogor Regency Government is opening up ample opportunities for collaboration with KNPI and all youth organizations.

"I invite senior KNPI members currently in government to guide and engage the younger generation to remain united and focused on development. (PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS TEAM / BOGOR REGENCY DISKOMINFO/rka)
