"Today, the inauguration of Dr. Nisbah as PAW member of the Central Sulawesi KPU has been carried out, replacing Tanwir Lamaming (deceased)," said RI KPU member Betty Epsilon Idroos in a written statement, quoted by Antara, Monday, June 13.

Betty, who is also the KPU's Data and Information Coordinator, explained that the PAW members of the KPU for the four provinces have been sworn in, namely Central Sulawesi, Central Java KPU, West Java, and DKI Jakarta KPU.

"There is only one province, namely West Papua, whose files are still being processed," he said.

The inauguration, he said, was to accelerate the replacement of vacancies and maximize the work of election organizers.

"The stages of simultaneous elections have started, it takes maximum work from election organizers," he hoped.

In addition, KPU Regulation Number 3 of 2022 concerning the Stages and Schedule for the Implementation of the 2024 General Election has also been ratified.
