Bawaslu Will Extend TPS Supervisory Recruitment
Chairman of Bawaslu Rahmat Bagja said his party would extend the recruitment period for supervisory polling stations (TPS) until the voting time was close.
"This is still a process, we will reopen, we are waiting," said Bagja as quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, January 18.
This is to fill the vacancy of 18,000TPS throughout Indonesia who do not yet have a supervisor.
Bagja explained that his party had prepared several mitigation steps. In addition, Bawaslu will recruit the village residents of tet angga to be TPS supervisors.
"The TPS supervisors should be local residents. For example, TPS supervisors who are not from the surrounding environment, the TPS supervisors must come from the local environment," he said.

If there are some conditions that cannot be met, he said, finding a replacement to be transferred to Indonesia in the archipelago will be difficult.
Therefore, Bawaslu will continue to use human resources in the area where the TPS supervisory recruitment is carried out.
"For example, the level of education is only up to elementary junior high school. No one is in high school, like it or not," explained Bagja.
