Election Day

• In Indonesia today is an important day because it is the election day
• we vote and elected the parties and the representative from such parties to be the peoples representatives in the Parliament
• It was really interesting because there are so many Parties who participate in such election
• The most important thing is that we are being given the chance to select our representative
• from the registered entitled person to vote in my place it appears only 65% participated exercising their right to vote and came to the election poll
• some of my friends in other places are not registered as entitled person even though they had been living in their places for a long time and had held the Identity Card as Registered habitat in their places for a long time
• It appears that the system of the election committee has to be revitalized and improved because it makes the person who cannot participate feels really frustrated.
• we do not know whether there was a deliberate intention since you may find many similar cases in other parts of the polling election experienced by my other friends.
• well, we shall see the results of the election in this coming days
