In Front Of Members Of DKI Bawaslu, Deputy Governor Riza Regarding The 2024 Election: The First And Only Time In The World

JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Riza Patria is proud that Indonesia will hold general elections including voting to elect the executive and legislative branches simultaneously in 2024.

He said the five-year democratic party held in this country was the first time this had happened in the world.

"For the first time and the only one in the world, Indonesia will hold elections and local elections simultaneously," Riza said on his Twitter account, @ArizaPatria, Wednesday, May 24.

The 2024 election is known to be divided into two stages. The public will elect the president and his deputy, members of the DPR, Provincial DPRD, Regency or City DPRD, and members of the DPD on February 14.

Next is the vote to elect the Governor and Deputy Governor, Regent and Deputy Regent, Mayor and Deputy Mayor on Wednesday, November 27.

Riza sees the important role of election organizers. Of course, the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu) has the authority to oversee and determine the success or failure of the practice of democracy in Indonesia.

"Ladies and gentlemen, these election supervisors will be the backbone of the success of this national celebration," he said.

Riza said that what he conveyed was known by members of the DKI Bawaslu during the Election Supervisory Readiness Alert Call held by the DKI Jakarta Bawaslu at Tebet Eco Park, South Jakarta on Tuesday, May 24.

"Yesterday we met when the Election Supervisory Preparedness Calls were made," he said.
