Majene, Sulbarkita.com - Chairman of the Majene Regency General Election Commission (KPU), West Sulawesi, Muh Arsalin Aras hopes the ad hoc organizers of the 2019 general election will improve the quality of work and cohesiveness in carrying out their duties.

According to Arsalin, coordination of fellow election ad hoc organizers must also run well. Especially, for the secretariat. "Because they are like our 'kitchen'," he said last Thursday.

All PPK members and voting organizers (PPS) are also encouraged to continue to consolidate the organization. Namely by building harmonious communication at the internal level, both fellow members of the PPK and with elements of the secretariat and PPS.

For example, coordinating intensely with external components in their respective sub-districts. As with the sub-district government officials, community social organizations, district election supervisory committees, political parties, PPS and others, "Arsalin said.

In addition Arsalin also asked all PPS members to immediately prepare the selection of candidates for the Voting Organizing Group (KPPS) at the village and kelurahan levels. The recruitment process was expected by Arsalin to involve the role of voter data updating officers (pantarlih) as data collectors.

Arsalin added, PPK and PPS in working must be guided by the principle of the election organizer as stipulated in Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections. That is independent, honest, fair, legal certainty, orderly, public interest, openness, proportionality, professionalism, accountability, efficiency and effectiveness. This is important so that the quality of holding elections is maintained.

The Banggae District is expected to be able to maintain the achievements of West Sulawesi. In the previous elections, the level of voter participation at the national level reached 7.5 percent while West Sulawesi was at 77.6 percent.
