Direktorat Jenderal Bina

Indonesian to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law (general) / Laws on Agriculture
Indonesian term or phrase: Direktorat Jenderal Bina
Recently I've been coming across the term "bina" in the legal context?
In this case, it's Ditjen Jenderal produksi Peternakan
Some people ignore it, and others translate it as "development"
So what is the difference between Ditjen Bina and just Ditjen?
Would love it if one of you can help?
Thank you in advance

Directorate General for [Development of] XXX


Explanation:
There is always some other noun after "Bina"
e.g. Ditjen Bina Administrasi kewilayahan - DG for Development of Regional Administration
Ditjen Bina Usaha Kehutanan - DG of Forest Business Development

but in some cases we might consider the "Bina" as superfluous.

A Google search shows that actually it's Direktorat Bina Produksi Peternakan (not Direktorat Jenderal) --> Directorate for [Development of] Livestock Production

neutral  ErichEko ⟹⭐: No, it is a directorate general as clearly stated by its offical website: http://ditjenpkh.pertanian.go.id (see the history section).

  -> OK, I stand corrected. I guess the web page I looked at was out of date.

Reference information:
Hi Sarah, the name of the directorate general has changed several times as described in this page: http://ditjenpkh.pertanian.go.id/pages/45/sejarah.html

That is why that you at some times see Ditjen, and Ditjen Bina at some other times. I suggest you follow what the source text says: if there is Bina, then have it translated; if not, save your time by not translating it.

Please also refer to this to get some ideas of the latest structure: http://peraturan.go.id/search/download/11e529e76320b1c8bfe53... (go directly to Page 3 Article 4).
