JAKARTA - The chairman of the Gerindra Party, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, said that his party is still reviewing the urgency of whether or not the regional elections should be held in 2022.
"We are also calculating and studying it, and we are asking for opinions and discussions with other political parties regarding whether or not the elections in 2022 are needed", said Dasco at the DPR building, quoted by Antara, Wednesday, January 27.
Dasco emphasized that Gerindra has not issued an official stance on the Election Bill. This includes whether or not the Election Bill is needed immediately.
"This also still concerns the opinions of the parties. Meanwhile, it is still being communicated between the existing political parties", said Dasco.
Gerindra, continued Dasco, would only issue a stance after establishing communication across political parties at the DPR.
"In response to this Gerindra is waiting for the results of communication and coordination between political parties in the DPR", he said.
DPR Commission II is currently discussing the draft Law (RUU) on General Elections which regulates the implementation of regional head elections (Pilkada) in 2022 and 2023.
