"The meeting like this with the city mayors and the district heads across the country can be held not only once a year but also twice, or three times a year, depending on needs," President Jokowi said in his opening speech.
He noted that such a meeting with the leaders from 416 districts and 98 cities across Indonesia should be held as one of the steps to consolidate the organizations in large country like Indonesia.
Earlier on Thursday the head of state held a coordination meeting with the city mayors and the district heads at the Bogor Palace.
Also preset at Fridays meeting were among others Vice President Jusuf Kalla and Home Affairs Minister Tjahjo Kumolo.
