CNA Explains: What you need to know about Indonesia's presidential election 

Fun fact : The 2024 Indonesia election will be held in just one day, and it involved 204 million peoples with each person vote on 5 different papers which if calculated, approximately 1,04 billion votes happen within just 6 hours. And if those each vote were illustrated as a person, there will be 1,04 billion person which are equivalent to 12,5% of total world populations.

In Indonesia, Two Round System has been used, unlike in the Philippines, has a First-Past-The-Post which means even some many candidates are voted but only one is automatically winner In the Philippines, Presidential Elections took place every six years, while mid-term elections took place every three years but only voted in the legislative branch(House of Representatives and Senate) In Two Round System in Indonesia, in the first round, only two candidates will proceed to the second round where it was automatically winner a candidate There are similarities between Philippines and Indonesia in Political System: 1.Both are Presidential System of Government 2.Bicameral Legislature(In the Philippines was House of Representatives or Mababang Kapulungan and Senate or Senado ng Pilipinas, while in Indonesia was Regional Representative Council and House of Representatives of Indonesia) 3.Local Government in both countries are the same and different including: -Both are Provincial Governor and Vice-Governors -In the Philippines, the head of the city or town was the Mayor and Vice-Mayor while in Indonesia, every province has regency, lead by a regent, plus seperate cities are head by the mayor and vice-mayor -Provincial Legislature are different in two countries:Sangguniang Panlalawigan or Provincial Board in the Philippines, Provincial Parliament in Indonesia -City/Municipal Legislature are different too:Sangguniang Panglungsod/Sangguniang Pambayan or Municipal/City Councilors in the Philippines, Regency Parliament in Indonesia -Indonesia has third level which is Kecamatan or Sub-District led by Gamut, while in the Philippines, it was none since District has been used in Metro Manila and Davao but it was under supervision by the Mayor(examples was Ermita District in Manila and Paquibato District in Davao) -In the village level, in the Philippines was Barangay led by Barangay Captain or Village Chief together with Sangguniang Barangay(Barangay Council), plus Sangguniang Kabataan(Youth Council) led by SK Chairman and SK Councilors, while in Indonesia, Kedesaan was led by Kepala Desa, which is equivalent of Barangay Captain 4.Both have Supreme Court in both countries 5.Both are Written Constitution Hope to wish a Good Luck to Indonesian Voters and Keep Voting Wisely to pick the Presidential Candidate of Indonesia to make Philippines and Indonesia, stronger as friends and love, this 75th Anniversary of Diplomatic Relations 🇵🇭🤝🇮🇩 I 💕 Indonesia from Calamba City, Laguna in the Philippines 🇵🇭💕🇮🇩

If only CNA can have such a chat on Singapore political scene during elections period

Siapapun nanti jadi presiden Yang penting jujur adil dan bisa mensejahterakan rakyat nya dari garis kemiskinan aamiin

Silent majority in Indonesia have made decision, more than 50% of voters have voted to Prabowo - Gibran. We have our own & we do our own. Indonesia Raya ❤

This is such a good moderated session

It was minimum 35 years old as requirement to enroll the presidencial Election. People must read the rules before it was changed to minimum 40 years old. The act makes young people disappointed there MK decided to make excuse if the person was voted as Governor/Vice, Major/Deputy in Indonesia. That's to accomodate young people who already reach 35 years old "A politician thinks of the next election. A statesman, thinks of the next generation.” *(Joko Freeman Widodo)*

I Love Indonesia and people of Indonesian

Indonesia jaya 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩👍

Indonesia Maju!! ❤❤

Please bear in mind that both of his son and his son in law were democratically elected by the people and they remain very popular until now.

Indonesia and Singapore let's prosper together 💪😊

Don't needed mediocre on stage. Politics is art, rules, ethics and mentality are clear. Providing personal candidate who is better than sons and son on law. Put all of them on reformation race product.

Saya percaya semua proses ini buat kemajuan dan kedamaian indonesia

BOTH OF THEM ARE WRONG !! I THINK BOTH OF THEM ARE NOT ELIGIBLE TO TALK IN THE CNA TV..INACCURATE MESSAGES AND ANSWER GIVEN BY THEM..😢😢😢

I would be interested to know, as someone who has never studied Indonesian politics, what are the political views of each of the Indonesian presidential contenders, thanks in advance 😅❤

Why does malaysia don't have jesus statue. We filipino and also Indonesia have jesus statue thats make high tolerance. 🇵🇭❤🇮🇩

Great Indonesia❤

Singapore should be happy that finally 2 of their alumni really become an influential political figures outside Singapore.

Saya Cinta Indonesia dan masyarakat Indonesia

Golkar translates to Working Class, not Functional Group 😄

10:40 "7 are in his coalition, like 82 % of the seats are his." this is why we should be wondering why the bill of asset forfeiture (RUU perampasan aset) is not confirmed as a bill until now.

Rakyat yg memilih.

Indonesia akan menjadi pemimpin dunia. Siapa yg paham bahasa aku ??

9:02 Jokowi probably wishes to emulate Malaysia. A dominant party UMNO that tailored a coalition of parties called Barisan Nasional (BN) that steamrolled opposition voices of PA and DAP. Economic programs were initiated with minimal opposition. Thus, Malaysia developed quick. But Malaysians got fedup of the consequent corruption in BN. Jokowi thought he could avoid the corruption that grew from BN's almost absolute power. Yet, Jokowi misjudged the integrity of coalition parties as shown by corruption of his Cabinet.

I'm Indonesian. for you people "Foreigners don't need to pretend to care about our country. We know that no country likes to see a country become a developed country, holding elections but the ones who are worried are other countries. Neighboring countries, especially they are so anxious

Nice of the moderator to also act as a panelist. No need to even have the other panelists because moderator was doing such a good job speaking on behalf of everyone

Who are they?? Looks like they put Mr.Jokowi wrong.. Stop assuming & your statement Dammed 🤬🤬🤬

Nepotism is wild, considering the enormous support for Anis by the citizens. It baffels me how people in power will force the numbers boldly

Prabowo win is a win for secularism and pluralism. The other candidate (Anies) is supported by hardline muslim groups and has publicly said unlike jokowi he will “respect freedom of speech” of groups wanting to change the country into islamic sharia state. Indonesian minorities voted overwhelmingly for Prabowo.

Presidential election: "not looking for who is the best, but preventing the bad from coming to power" greetings from Indonesia

I'am a person indonesia i'am introduce my name is Lintar I live in Balikpapan nort kalimantan i voter or election two number mrs prabowo and gibran hopefully they both incradible lovely to people of Indonesians because the society or country so wanderfull more activities took ideology can be one of the only one maritime country so populers much provinces sabang to merauke prabowo and gibran i belife glory Indonesia

Excellent thank you

Harapannya, terjadi perubahan nyata di Indonesia. Bentuknya, seperti apa? Yang pentingt, berlangsung damai, politik dinasti punah, demokrasi tegak dan kuat. Tapi, bisakah? Ya, semoga.

after watching documentarry film "dirty vote' i could say that behind Jokowi's depiction as a humble moderate person that comin from low class society and can manage to be a president for 2 periods. and while he's the popular leader (both in domestic and international community) he has ambitious project to remove Indonesia capital from Jakarta to Kalimantan island in the sake of Jakarta that has been to crowded and over populated. and unfortunately he cant finished his ambition despite his second term. so he played behind the scene to arrange his older son to continuing his ambition. and i sicerely hopes that his son will win

Indonesia has done well in the Presidency of Jokowi. Indonesians should have the same right as Singaporeans to be led by a good President, family or not.

Infact Jokowi'son and son in law performs better than most of the city mayors in Indonesia. Even if they were selected because of Jokowi, if they cannot work they will not perform. That's a FACT

In your.large map behind the broadcaster i couldnt see the island of Java.

Prabowo Gibran satu putaran

💪economy for people interest✊ 🚫No geopolitics for politicians interest.

Sad to see Indonesian helpers voting for prabowo and receiving $25 each for it. Its a $25 vote. 😢😢😢😢😢

In my home country, China, 960 million people live in poverty.

PRABOWO FOR PRESIDENT 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩

We will see if rig occurs continuously...

Simple common sense.

Semoga berhasil besok Indonesia ! silakan memilih demokrasi 😅👍

Hey, just wanted to point out that the Singaporean presenter seems to frequently interrupt, which can be quite off-putting, especially for an Indonesian audience. A more patient and respectful approach in allowing others to finish their thoughts could greatly improve the conversation flow and overall experience. Additionally, it seems like the presenter is imposing her views rather than facilitating a balanced discussion. This can be perceived as disrespectful, especially in a diverse audience. Encouraging a variety of perspectives would make the dialogue more engaging and inclusive. You can do better CNA.

I am Singaporean and my country is rich.

Send your journalists, if they are lucky they may find money used to buy vote. Especially very early in the morning at d-day.

Agen2 intelejen asiing mulaai bergerak 😂 Kita liat nnti gmna tanggapan internasional atau berita2 internasional terkait pemilu d indonesia

I am bitterly disappointed in Jokowi.. I thought it was the “clean” one. Betrayal is definitely the right word for it.

Avatar of indonesian ❤

Joko Widodo are not make a political dinasty, in the world of democracy anything can happen .. and I loved my country Indonesia to get rule by Mr. Prabowo Subianto (I'll vote for him as well).

I voted 02"😊

Prabowo poursuivra le programme de Jokowi et le rendra encore plus avancé, éliminera la pauvreté et éradiquera la corruption. Prabowo a gagné 1 tour

❤

Russia and China and allies, even America's allies, want to be closer, even making them allies makes you very strategic, economic, political, geopolitical, etc.

99% indonesian choose em at random LOL because there over 20 political party and even me as indonesian i feel the citizen dont particulary hype up about this year election

✌🏼☕

All in Prabowo ✌️😊

☝️

Semoga Anies menang. Inshaa Allah

If you have a closer look, two of the candidates, Anies Baswedan looks A LOT like Senator Armstrong from Metal Gear. While Ganjar Pranowo is well, White haired Homelander.

There's no dynasty because they won't win if the people don't choose them.

Penyakit di Indonesia itu satu DPR nya...

Jokowi could have led Indonesia as a dictator with that much power he had and still has, but he did not and it's already saying something.

I love Indonesia ❤❤❤❤

Reporter said biggest democracy behind US and India ,it should be India and US.India has more voters than US,am i right to say that?Correct me if i am wrong😅😅😅

Prabowo-Putin-Kim Jong un 🔥

Election day's held on Valentine's Day isn't coincident, the government stated the date purposely to send message that election is all about love to the nation, it's a party of democracy, so let it be peaceful with no anger or dispute ... Happy Valentine's Day for all people everywhere, peace and love to the world ❤️

"Untuk menyusun dan menjalankan skenario kotor, tak perlu kepintaran atau kecerdasan. Yang diperlukan cuma dua, mental culas dan tahan malu." -Bivitri Susanti, Dirty Vote (2024)

mungkin presiden sekarang adalah media sosial. mungkin orang yang akan menjadi presiden adalah penggagas dan kontrol permainan. tetapi yang memutuskan untuk lanjut dan berhentinya jabatan presiden adalah angaktan muda pelajar mahasiswa. bermain sewajarnya pak. perihal negri ini negri tumpah darahnya rakyat. perihal negri ini negri nya anak muda. itu adalah satu-satunya otoritas tertinggi tanpa pangat dan jabatan yang dimiliki masyarakat.

Prabowo 1 Putaran😊😊

Prabowo Gibran 🫶🩵

the comment above is very funny 😅😅

The worst ever election in Indonesia. Big NO for Anak Haram Konstitusi

Anis Baswedan ❤❤

I thought they were supposed to discuss on indonesia's election yet, they're more interested in talking about Jokowi 😂😂😂 How embarassing.

Org indonesia gausah pada komen, so soan amat. Maksudnya gw pgn baca komen2 org asing. Nimbrung aja dmn2 org indo tuh

Mata dunia tertuju DEMOKRASI di indonesia......

Aku yakin bakal 2 putaran

The most stupid person will become new leader with reason he can make people laugh with stupidity

What’s this black campaign about our President❓❗️ Jokowi is considered the best president we ever had. These 2 speakers don’t represent majority voice in Indonesia.

Anies President 👑🇮🇩
