KPU should be introspective

KPU should be introspective

From Koran Tempo

Members of the General Elections Commission (KPU) in executing the noble task of organizing smooth and successful elections should in fact be accountable for their performance to the entire population and almighty God.

As a fellow citizen I would like to remind them that they will make valuable contributions toward the country's democracy only by maintaining honesty, sincerity and a high sense of devotion, while avoiding personal or group interests.

They should be able, as a select group, to adapt their theoretical capabilities to practical realities. In this context, it is necessary to engage in introspection while there is still enough time for further improvements.

Particularly, in regard to those in charge of logistical affairs -- they need to resist the temptation of material gains.
