The Syndicate Says Any Elected KPU Member Can Influence The Quality Of The Election

JAKARTA - Director of PARA Syndicate Adi Nurcahyo emphasized that the candidates for KPU and Bawaslu RI who will be elected after a fit and proper test in the DPR RI will have implications for the quality of the elections to be held in 2024.

In a discussion in Jakarta, Friday, February 11, Adi said that the candidates for KPU and Bawaslu RI members who were elected would be expected to be the best and most trusted figures.

According to him, the best commissioners are related to the capacity, proportionality, and integrity of the elected and trusted figures, namely to fulfill public acceptability.

"Because we believe that elections are good, democratic and with integrity will also have implications for public trust in the electoral democratic process that we will carry out in 2024," he said.

Adi said that the DPR RI on February 14-16, 2022 will hold a fit and proper test for candidates for KPU and Bawaslu RI members who have been selected by the selection team.

Therefore, Adi reminded that the figures who took part in the fit and proper test stage deserve public scrutiny, even though in the selection process by the South East Timor, the public had actually paid close attention to them.

"We hope that we can really focus on the 14 names of KPU candidates and 10 Bawaslu names so that we can together with the DPR produce the best and most trusted Bawaslu commissioners," he said.

Timsel candidates for KPU members have chosen 14 names. These names have also been submitted to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).

For information, the 14 names of candidates for KPU 2022-2027 who have passed so far are August Mellaz, Betty Idroos, Dahliah, Hasyim Asy'ari, I Dewa Kade Wiarsa Raka Sandi.
