The AMIN National Team Invites Academics To Speak Up About Election Fraud In 2024

JAKARTA - The National Team for Winning Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar (AmIN National Team), invites academics to voice their voices over alleged violations of neutrality and fraud in the 2024 General Election.

Assistant Coach of the AMIN National Team, Tamsil Linrung said the educated community must have the courage to speak up and fight the fraudulent acts committed by certain candidate pairs.

"With this massive neutrality, it can fight only the people. Especially academics, from students to professors. Including Islamic organizations Muhammadiyah, NU, as well as other religious organizations," he said in a written statement received by Antara in Jakarta, Sunday.

The statement was a response to a photo showing Indonesian President Joko Widodo having dinner with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto on Friday (5/1).

"From the start, he has also emphasized that he will interfere with the election," he said.

In addition, he said the Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) should impose strict sanctions for violations committed by certain candidate pairs during the campaign. Starting from the alleged existence of money politics, the installation of billboards by state officials, as well as intimidation.

The General Election Commission (KPU) of the Republic of Indonesia has determined the 2024 Presidential and Vice Presidential Elections (Pilpres) participants, namely the Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar pair number 1, Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka number 2, and Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud Md. serial number 3.

The KPU has also set a campaign period from November 28, 2023 to February 10, 2024, then the voting schedule will be on February 14, 2024.
