Indonesia ready for presidential election: electoral commission

Indonesia is well on track for the presidential election scheduled on July 8, the General Election Commission (KPU) Chairman Abdul Hafiz Anshary said.

Abdul Hafiz said that the KPU has learned much from the heavily-flawed April 9 legislative elections.

It now has a double-checking system in place for registering the approximately 176 million eligible voters nationwide, he added.

Political parties contended in the legislative elections complained about flaws in the KPU-endorsed voter list which they said incorrect. Millions of eligible voters, they said, were not listed in the KPU's voters list.

The KPU has recruited adequately-trained poll workers at district and subdistrict level and ensured that elections materials have been distributed down to the low-level committees across the country, he said.

"All election materials have been distributed and will arrive in regencies and municipalities on July 1 and at polling stations a day before voting day," the Jakarta Post quoted Tuesday Abdul assaying when he supervised the election logistic in Mataram.
