An Effort to Build Indonesias Democracy through Enforcement of the Honor of Election Organizers

Election organizers play a very important role in determining whether the democratic process is getting better or worse in Indonesia as a developing country. Election organizers deal directly with all stages of the national election, both for the presidential election, vice president, and for the election of members of parliament. Election organizers are also the implementers of regional head elections, namely governors and deputy governors, regents and deputy regents as well as mayors and deputy mayors throughout Indonesia. In this general election, candidates, both political parties and individuals, or pairs of candidates promoted by political parties, or individuals, compete for the cake of political power. Disputes and social unrest that have resulted in the destruction of public facilities and infrastructure in Indonesia, such as the burning of government-owned office buildings, and even fatalities, are often the targets of the public who are dissatisfied with the performance of election administrators who are suspected of siding with one candidate. There are at least two basic principles that must be adhered to by all election administrators, namely: professionalism in organizing elections, and fairness to all election participants as the courage to act independently and behave equally to all contesting election participants.
