Jakarta – The Indonesian Survey Circle (LSI) revealed on Sunday that the public is disappointed with the performances of young politicians, showing its latest survey result that only 24.8 percent of respondents were happy with them.

According to LSI, respondents were unsatisfied with young politicians because many of them were perceived as reproducing corrupt political practice.

"The term 'young politician' refers to political parties or mass organization practitioners whose ages range from 20 to 50, " LSI researcher Adjie Alfaraby said Sunday during a press conference in Jakarta.

LSI conducted the survey from Sep. 5 to 10, involving 1,200 respondents from across the country's 33 provinces. It used a multistage-random-sampling method in direct interviews. The approximate margin of error was 2.9 percent. (rpt)
