The election by the DPRD is ‘as if’ ‘as if’ uniform, but it is necessary to revise the Pilkada Act and the comprehensive government legislation,” he said. “But there is also an opportunity for the voice of the people to be distorted.

The Golkar party is interested in the discourse, but the public still needs to be involved. “We are interested in discussing the election by the DPRD, but with community involvement,” Sarmuji, secretary general of the Golkar party, told reporters on Wednesday (7/30). “At least the people can directly hear the vision and mission of the candidate through campaigns and open debates. If there are other things that can be done to involve the people at the election by the DPRD, we will formulate well,” he added. According to Sarmuji, direct elections have benefits, especially about public participation, but that does not mean that there is nothing bad. While the mechanism elected by the DPRD is considered effective but often criticized for keeping the people of the democratic process. “The people cannot hear the vision and mission of the candidate directly, do not see the fight against ideas and eventually feel that they make no contribution to choosing their leaders,” he said.
