ASN In Gunung Mas Regency, Central Kalimantan Is Allowed To Be The Organizer Of The 2024 General Election

CENTRAL KALIMANTAN - State Civil Apparatus (ASN) Gunung Mas Regency (Gumas) in Central Kalimantan Province (Kalteng) was allowed to host the 2024 General Election. The permit was issued by the Regent of Gunung Mas, Jaya Samaya Monong.

"Several villages in Gunung Mas have a small population. So it doesn't matter if ASN is part of the election organizers. However, his notes, do not neglect the main task and maintain neutrality," Jaya said in Kuala Kurun, Central Kalimantan, quoted from Antara, Wednesday, November 9.

Jaya said that in remote areas, the KPU can recruit government employees such as teachers to organize the 2024 General Election.

He reasoned that in one village where the population was small, the search for human resources (HR) to become a member of the ad hoc body was quite difficult. This is because often some people have become members of political parties.

If someone has become a member of a political party, then the person concerned is not allowed to be an election organizer. Therefore, Jaya invited ASN within the Gunung Mas Regency Government to participate in the recruitment of ad hoc members.

"I support and welcome, as long as I do not violate the applicable rules and regulations. Hopefully, later I will be elected as ad hoc members who are of high quality, integrity, and professional and maintain neutrality," Jaya said.

Meanwhile, the head of the Gunung Mas KPU, Stevenson, said that his party would open the recruitment of the ad hoc body for the 2024 election organizers, starting from the District Election Committee (PPK), the Voting Committee (PPS), and the Voting Organizing Group (KPPS).

In establishing an ad hoc body, he continued, the Gunung Mas KPU has challenges related to the small population in several villages. Because usually some people have become members of political parties.

He hopes that the recruitment of ad hoc bodies for the 2024 General Election in Gunung Mas can run well, safely and smoothly, and be elected as members of the ad hoc body with integrity.

Furthermore, the Indonesian KPU has just launched the SIAKBA application. SIAKBA is a web-based information technology system, in order to facilitate the selection stages of provincial/city KPU members, PPK, PPS, and the Overseas Election Committee (PPLN).

In addition, SIAKBA also facilitates interim replacements (PAW) for members of the provincial/city KPU, and ad hoc bodies. Furthermore, facilitate the management of data & continuous administrative documents.

"People can visit SIAKBA if they want to find more detailed information regarding the selection stages for provincial/city KPU members, PPK, PPS, PPLN, and others," said Stevenson.
