TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo has signed Presidential Regulation (Perpres) No. 18 of 2024, which increases the performance allowance for employees of the Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu).
This decision has been passed two days before the simultaneous general elections, including the presidential polls, which are scheduled to take place on February 14, 2024.
As per Article 3 of the Perpres, the allowance of performance for Bawaslu employees will be implemented immediately upon the effective date of the Perpres.
