National – The Election Organizers Ethics Council (DKPP) has fired 95 members of the Regional General Election Commissions (KPUD) across the country over ethics violations.
DKPP chairman Jimly Asshiddiqie said over the weekend that the decision was made to deter unethical behavior among election officials, who were expected to hold fair and transparent elections.
Jimly ensured that DKPP would always be prudent in its decision-making. "I always ask DKPP members to think wisely. We are responsible for maintaining the image of the institution before the public," he said.
