SIMPANG EMPAT - Chairman of the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu) of the Republic of Indonesia, Abhan, asked his staff to prepare for the 2024 general elections, which may start in June 2022.

"If there are no changes and the government and the DPR have agreed that the election will be held on February 24, 2024, the stages are estimated to start on June 15, 2022", he said at Simpang Empat, Thursday, March 24.

According to him, Bawaslu in regencies/cities throughout Indonesia must improve coordination in synergy with the local government to prepare for this stage of the election.

In addition to preparing Human Resources from the State Civil Apparatus (ASN), infrastructure facilities must also be coordinated so that the stages of the General Election will run well later.

"Including the regional election budget issue, it must be coordinated from now on", he said, quoted by Antara.

He assessed that the preparation of Bawaslu human resources needed to be improved and internal consolidation must be carried out immediately because the stages that will be carried out later are not only commissioners but must be supported by a strong secretariat.

"The existing human resources must be prepared before the stages start because when the stages are completed, problems will arise", he said.

In addition to the preparation of human resources, the completeness of infrastructure must also be considered.

For this reason, he said, Bawaslu in districts/cities must improve coordination with the local government regarding the supporting infrastructure.

Especially for the Bawaslu of West Pasaman Regency and Pasaman Regency, whose areas were affected by the earthquake, there are no problems and are ready to carry out the existing stages.

"I came to West Pasaman, besides assisting earthquake victims, I also encouraged and saw preparations for the election. They are ready but several things must be completed", he said.
