Chairman of the DPP PAN Saleh Partaonan Daulay appreciated President Prabowo Subianto's statement regarding the regional head elections (pilkada) to return to their respective DPRDs and similar thoughts have long been discussed internally by PAN.
"If the President, who started this discourse, it seems that it will be easier to offer to all existing political parties," Saleh said as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, December 3.
According to him, PAN generally supports simpler and simpler regional head elections, especially since they have been implemented.
Saleh said the results were not much different from the current regional heads. Those who are chosen through the DPRD have also excelled. In fact, many are legendary and still remembered today.
"Regarding the performance of regional heads, it is not measured by the election mechanism, but rather more on the results of their work and services to the community," he said.
The regional head was directly elected by the community if he could not work, according to him, it would be useless.
"Today we found many types of regional heads like this," he said.
However, the change in the mechanism for choosing regional heads is considered not easy. The reason is, there are laws and derivative regulations that need to be revised.

According to him, all parties must map the electoral aspects that need to be changed. Before discussing the law, the mapping has been completed and is understood by all parties.
"Because this is from the President, at least 50 percent of the approval for the change has been obtained. It remains only to wait for the approval of parties in the DPR. It may also not be difficult because almost all political parties exist with the government coalition," he said.
"What is clear is that PAN will participate in reviewing and conducting simulations. PAN also does not want the policy to be very high with the current system. It is not healthy in maintaining the quality of democracy," he added.
