"Our need for notaries public reaches 21,058 while now we only have 9,732 notaries public," the minister said when addressing a training course on notaries here on Tuesday.
He said however that the need for notaries public would have been met at the end of the Second United Indonesia Cabinet`s term.
"There is still a big chance. There are many younger generations who come to the ministry of law and legal affairs to ask how they could get a license to become a notary public," the minister said.
Therefore, the minister said he had asked the directorate general for general legal administration affairs to give them a chance to become a notary public if they fulfill the required conditions.
Patrialis said that giving a chance to those who were creative would also help create job opportunities for others.
He said that one of the government`s vision was `pro-job` and this meant that jobs must be created for the people whose number was relatively big.
"Today, I will report to the president that after this training course there would be 1,300 younger generations who would have the identities as a notary public," the minister said.
