Asked about the political issues of the dynasty that hit the Governor of Riau, Saiman claimed he is disagree. Because if it is viewed from any aspect, the elements are not met. In terms of quantity, the number of family members of the governor and regional secretary who were appointed was less than 5 people from hundreds of ASNs who were appointed in the first wave.

"In terms of quality and conditions, they have also fulfilled the qualifications to occupy the available echelons and have been verified by officials who are competent to manage them. So what else do we want to review and be excited about," Saiman asked.

According to him, mutation becomes problematic, if an inaugurated family does not meet the requirements and qualifications, then is forced to sit in a certain position, then it is against the rules.

"To my knowledge, all ASNs who have been appointed have already paid attention to administrative reasons and legislation governing the conditions for promotion," he said.

Saiman added, mutation is the governor's authority as the leader. Rotation of officials is chosen according to the needs of the organization to help the governor run the wheels of government. So if he chooses people who are trusted to help him, it's normal and very human.

"Just look at the performance first, if it is not good it will be evaluated. If we cannot work and achieve, but we will not be able to do so, we can criticize the governor," he said.
