Golkar targets 10% of votes in regions

PEKANBARU: The Golkar party is aiming for at least 10 percent
of all votes in every region in the coming 2004 general election.

"There will be about 143 million voters in the coming
election. Golkar party has set a target of about 10 percent of
the votes from each region," Golkar Chairman Akbar Tandjung said
at the opening ceremony of the party chapter meeting in Pekanbaru
on Saturday.

He said Golkar had about 5 million voters so far and if the
target of 10 percent was reached as minimum in each regency, the
party might win the election. --Antara
