Constitutional law experts have proposed that direct
presidential elections be held after the general election to
elect legislators in the parliament, in efforts to allow winning
parties to name their presidential candidates in the direct
presidential election.

Sri Sumantri, a professor of constitutional law at the
Padjadjaran University in Bandung, said only parties winning the
general election should be able to nominate their candidates in
the presidential election.

"With such a system, there will be no necessity to conduct a
second round," he told the Assembly recently.

Jimly Assidique from the University of Indonesia, was of the
same opinion and said a presidential candidate was not required
to gain a single majority to win the presidential election.
