However, the implementation of this system within the Malang Regency Government reveals gaps, particularly in the fulfillment of positions, notably within sub-districts and kelurahans. This research delves into the challenges surrounding the promotion of civil servants in echelon III and IV positions based on the merit system. The aim is to scrutinize the promotion process and Strategies adopted by the Malang Regency government, East Java Province. Employing a qualitative approach with a case research method, primary data is gathered from interviews with informants, complemented by secondary data derived from documentation. Through techniques such as interviews, documentation, and observation, qualitative data analysis is conducted. The promotion strategy is further evaluated using a SWOT analysis, pinpointing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
