Jakarta - The Chairman of the Indonesian Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu), Rahmat Bagja, has asked the sub-district supervisory committee (panwascam) to be directly present during the 2024 simultaneous regional election campaign.
"Friends will oversee the implementation of the campaign. The trick is to supervise through presence. So, supervision is not through television. I'm sure it will be rare for campaigns to enter television later," Bagja said in an official statement, Sunday (7/7/2024).
Bagja reminded Panwascam to always use identification tags as a form of Bawaslu's existence while on duty at the 2024 regional election stage.
"You are not intel, you are a supervisor of the campaign process. Therefore, you must use an identity. Vests and hats if available must also be worn," he said.
In addition, Bagja also asked Panwascam to make a detailed supervision report (LHP) and submit it to the local district / city Bawaslu.
"It must be explained in detail in the LHP, which couple is campaigning, how many people are the campaign participants, and whose campaign team is responsible. That must be checked and written down. If there are no findings, don't write zero, but write there are no violations," he said.
He also asked Panwascam to establish good coordination with the sector police (Polsek).
He believes that good coordination will make it easier for panwascam and Bawaslu district / city if there are problems that need to be resolved through the Integrated Law Enforcement Center (Gakkumdu).
