“The embassy of the Republic of Indonesia has received an official notification from Central Jakarta General Election Commission (KPU) regarding the 2024 Election Rerun Poll in Kuala Lumpur.
“The embassy in Kuala Lumpur is not the organiser of the 2024 election. The organiser is the KPU and Bawaslu (General Election Supervisory Body),” according to the embassy on Facebook.
Meanwhile, the KPU, in a post on its Facebook page, quoted the statement of its head, Hasyim Asy’ari, as saying that Bawaslu has proposed that the re-voting process be carried out in Kuala Lumpur.
Indonesian media reports state that the re-voting will involve 62,217 registered voters consisting of 42,372 individuals who will vote at the WTC and 19,845 individuals through the mobile ballot boxes in 120 locations.
The re-voting was carried out after Indonesian police found election violations involving data manipulation and forgery carried out by seven Kuala Lumpur Foreign Election Committee members. – March 9, 2024
