Definitive Secretary


Explanation:
Saya pribadi cukup sulit memahami apa yg dimaksud dengan singkatan 'pd.' di naskah sumber karena yg biasa dikenal adalah plh (pelaksana harian), plt (pelaksana tugas), pj (penjabat), dan pjs (penjabat sementara).

Kalau pd. ditafsirkan sebagai 'pelaksana dinas,' hal ini tidak selaras dg singkatan yg biasa digunakan, yaitu 'pelaksana' disingkat 'pl.'

Karena itu, saya mengusulkan pd = pejabat definitif.
