JAKARTA - Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary (LBBP) of the Republic of Indonesia (RI) to Romania and the Republic of Moldova Meidyatama Suryodiningrat said President Joko Widodo advised the ambassadors to ensure that the 2024 elections abroad can run safely.
"The first is to ensure that the rights of citizens of the Republic of Indonesia abroad are fulfilled, one of which is to ensure that it is related to voter registration and so on," said Meidyatama Suryodiningrat, who is usually called Dimas at the Jakarta Presidential Palace, Monday, June 26, which was confiscated by Antara.
Dimas conveyed this after being inaugurated by President Jokowi along with 11 other LBBP Ambassadors at the State Palace in Jakarta.
"It must be remembered, we as ambassadors representing the country, we are not directly involved because there is a overseas election committee, our job is to facilitate this," added Dimas.
Dimas said that his inauguration as Ambassador to LBBP was the first batch of ambassadors to be inaugurated in the endemic era.
"So it's a little different," added Dimas.
Dimas said that the President hopes that the degree of voting abroad is as important as those in the country.
"This means guaranteeing that all Indonesian citizens abroad can exercise their rights as voters in accordance with the law and that the process is all going well, so elections abroad are as important as elections in Indonesia," said Dimas.
