On the occasion the president asked Lemhanas to go ahead with reforms and revitalization efforts to become a world class institution in the field of defense and security.
According to the head of state, Lemhanas should make every effort to be equal with other similar agencies in the developed countries.
"I have noted some progress of Lemhanas but I want more than that for we hope that in its reform and revitalization process it should be a world class institution," the president said.
The head of state also expressed hope that the reform and revitalization process should be done thoroughly, including in the areas of curriculum and teaching methods in order for Lemhanas to produce strategic planners with reliable management and leadership capability.
"Hence, Lemhanas will be equivalent in quality with other institutions in developed countries in terms of defense and security," the president said.
Meanwhile, Budi Susilo Supandji said Lemhanas has delivered a road map that would be pursued to become an world class institution.
"The president has given directives on the items that we have to prepare," said the Lemhanas governor.
Budi Susilo said that the plan concerning a dialogue of the president with the participants of Lemhanas education program of force-17 to be conducted on August 9, 2011 was also discussed at the meeting.
