KPU Adds Podium On The Second To Fifth Debate Stage Of The 2024 Presidential Election
The General Elections Commission (KPU) has finalized the holding of the 2024 presidential election debate which will continue in the second debate.
In the presentation of the next debate concept, the KPU also evaluated several notes from the first debate and accommodated the proposal of a team of presidential and vice-presidential candidates to be implemented.
One of the proposals granted by the KPU is that there will be a podium placement for each candidate on stage in the second to fifth debate.
"We have mutually agreed on the evaluation, including all teams of candidate pairs submitting proposals that in the second and so on, each to the fifth, a simple podium is prepared as a means to appear from each presidential candidate and vice presidential candidate in the next debate, second, third, fourth, and fifth," explained Hasyim at the KPU RI office, Central Jakarta, Monday, December 18.
The second debate will be held on Friday, December 22. The KPU set the location for the second debate specifically for the vice presidential candidate (cawapres) at the Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) Senayan, Central Jakarta.
The theme of the second debate includes the economy (the people's economy and the digital economy), finance, tax investment, trade, management of the APBN-APBD, infrastructure, and urban areas.
