The chairman of the General Election Commission (KPU) of DKI Jakarta Province admitted that the sub-district election committee (PPK) workspace facilities for the 2024 General Election are currently inadequate.
Meanwhile, PPK must be formed and start working six months before voting day. PPK is assigned to carry out all stages of holding elections at the sub-district level.
"Currently, the condition of the PPK and PPS workspace is not all adequate. For this reason, support is needed so that they can carry out their duties as well-organizing adhoc bodies," Wahyu said in his statement, quoted Wednesday, July 19.
Wahyu conveyed this condition at a meeting with Commission A of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Tuesday, July 18. In addition, Wahyu also admitted that election organizers in the capital need a warehouse as a place to store election logistics.
"There are sub-districts that currently do not have a sports GOR (sport building) because they are still in the process of being built. In fact, apart from being used as a place to store ballot boxes after coming from polling stations, GOR is needed as a place for recapitulation," he said.
Wahyu also said the same thing when he met the Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono on Monday, June 19.
To Heru, Wahyu admitted that his party did not yet have a place to store election logistics, be it the voting committee documents, ballots, ballot boxes, and other facilities.

"That's one of the homeworks that we will talk about again. At least we need 8 thousand square meters. That could be a place or it could be accommodated in several places in districts/cities," said Wahyu.
Wahyu said that the warehouse covering an area of 8 thousand square meters was needed to accommodate election logistics, starting from the presidential and vice presidential elections (pilpres), as well as candidates for members of the DKI DPR-DPD-DPRD (pileg) which will be held on February 14, 2024.
Then, the warehouse will again hold the logistics for the DKI regional head election (pilkada) which will be held on November 27, 2024.
"The point is that we really need the warehouse because there is a logistics transition between the election (pilpres and legislative elections) and regional head elections," he said.
