The IKN Logo Election To This Day Has Involved 400 Thousand People
JAKARTA - The number of voters for the capital city of the archipelago (IKN) logo to date, Thursday, May 18, has reached more than 400 thousand people, but the IKN Authority still opens up opportunities for Indonesians to participate in determining the choice of logo until May 20.
"We invite the public to participate in the selection of the new logo of IKN. The selection of this logo will last until Saturday, May 20, 2023, currently there are more than 400 thousand voters," said Head of the IKN Authority Bambang Susantono, Antara, Thursday, May 18.
He admitted that the achievement of more than 400 thousand voters was quite fantastic, but the government through the IKN Authority together with Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI) continued to boost the dissemination of information so that more parties participated in choosing the IKN logo.
The elected logo will be announced directly by President Joko Widodo, so that for the 10 lucky people, they will get an electric motorbike gift signed directly by the President.
"We still invite the entire community as well as ASN and TNI and Polri to participate in choosing the logo, as the representation of IKN later, and the representation of the Indonesian nation," said Bambang.
According to him, public attention is still needed, so that the selection of the IKN logo has a good representation value. OIKN and BNI provide this information through strategic media channels, such as television, radio, videotron advertisements, websites, mass media, and social media.
