Comedian Qomar won't run in poll<\/p>\n
INDRAMAYU, East Java: The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle
\n(PDI-P) has nominated 10 pairs of Indramayu regent and vice
\nregent hopefuls, but the name of comedian Nurul Qomar did not
\nappear on the list of PDI-P candidates.<\/p>\n
Qomar's candidacy was apparently not backed by the executives
\nof the party's Indramayu branch.<\/p>\n
"It is the exclusive right of the party's executives to name
\nPDI-P candidates and by mistake, the name of Qomar has not been
\nincluded on the list," said Ono Surono, the secretary of the PDI-
\nP's Indramayu branch. The 10 pairs of candidates were named
\nduring a party meeting on Sunday, said Ono.<\/p>\n
Later, the national and provincial boards of party executives
\nwill choose one pair from among the 10 to contest October's
\nregency election in Indramayu, said Ono.<\/p>\n
"Indramayu's PDI-P branch merely forwards the names of the 10
\npairs, the decision to name a single pair of candidates rests
\nwith the party's boards of executives," said Ono. -- JP<\/p>",
