JAKARTA - The Executive Director of Indonesian Political Indicators, Burhanudin Muhtadi, has also criticized the discourse on postponing the 2024 General Election. According to him, political elites should not make proposals that provoke chaos.
"It is better if all elements of the nation's power, including political parties, do not make unnecessary noise, such as the proposed postponement of the election," said Burhanudin, Sunday, February 27.
Moreover, he continued, the political upheaval was sparked when President Joko Widodo was busy dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic.
"President Jokowi is working hard to resolve the problems caused by the protracted pandemic," he said. Burhanuddin assessed that the proposed postponement of the election from a political party could trigger controversy. Automatically, he said, also made the President's burden even more piled up.
"The proposed postponement of the election could create controversy that will drain the nation's energy and add to the burden on the President," he said. In fact, he added, the head of state is in the middle of fixing the health sector and the economy that has not yet recovered. So it is not appropriate for the leadership of political parties to enliven the issue. "The president has worked hard day and night so that the economic and health impacts of COVID-19 can be resolved immediately," he said.
