Kapanlagi.com - The 2024 regional elections are approaching, and the atmosphere of preparation in various regions is starting to be felt. One of the important pillars in this democratic process is the Voting Place Supervisors (PTPS), who play a crucial role in maintaining the honesty and integrity of the voting process. However, many are curious, what is the salary of PTPS in the 2024 regional elections? Additionally, what are the duties and authority that they must carry out?

As part of independent supervision, PTPS are expected to ensure that every stage of the voting process is conducted according to the applicable regulations. In this article, we will discuss in depth the salary, duties, and the differences between PTPS and the Voting Organizing Groups (KPPS) that are often considered the same.

For those of you interested in getting involved as TPS supervisors, check out the complete information about the responsibilities and requirements that must be met below. Let’s together understand the vital role of PTPS in ensuring that our democratic process runs transparently and fairly.

1. Salary of PTPS in the 2024 Regional Elections: How Much Is It?

Polling Place Supervisors (PTPS) play a crucial role in overseeing the 2024 Regional Elections, where they are tasked with maintaining the integrity of each stage of the voting process.

According to the letter from the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia, the salary for PTPS is set at Rp800,000 per month, as a reward for their dedication in supervising the voting and counting process in the field.

Known as the frontline in safeguarding democracy, PTPS appointed by the Election Supervisory Committee at the sub-district level (Panwascam) are not only provided with financial compensation but also intensive training to ensure they are ready to carry out their duties with full professionalism.

With a heavy workload, it is hoped that this salary can serve as a motivation for the supervisors to work with high commitment for the smoothness and fairness of the elections.

2. Duties and Authorities of PTPS in the 2024 Regional Elections

In an effort to maintain the integrity of the elections, PTPS (Voting Place Supervisors) play a crucial role as regulated by Bawaslu Regulation Number 1 of 2020. Their duties are divided into three important stages: preparation, implementation, and reporting.

PTPS is responsible for ensuring that all aspects of the voting preparation, from logistical readiness to the condition of the polling place, are carried out according to regulations. During the voting process, they carefully monitor to prevent fraud.

If they find violations, PTPS has the authority to file objections and receive minutes of the vote counting results.

Moreover, they are also required to report their findings to the Panwascam, so that any suspected violations can be followed up appropriately. Thus, PTPS serves as the frontline in maintaining fairness and transparency in the elections.

3. Differences between PTPS and KPPS in the 2024 Regional Elections

Behind the hustle and bustle of voting at the Polling Place (TPS), there are two important roles that complement each other: KPPS and PTPS.

KPPS, which stands for the Voting Organizing Group, is a team formed by the Voting Committee (PPS) tasked with conducting the voting and counting of votes, ensuring that the voter list is available, and delivering the results to witnesses and PPK.

On the other hand, PTPS, which is the supervisor from the District Election Supervisory Board, has the responsibility of overseeing the electoral process, including the movement of vote counting results, as well as preventing violations.

While KPPS consists of seven members, PTPS has only one person per TPS, emphasizing the difference in roles between executors and supervisors in maintaining the integrity of the elections.

4. Requirements and Registration Process for PTPS

Registration to become a Polling Place Supervisor (PTPS) in the 2024 Regional Election has officially opened until September 28, 2024.

For those who wish to contribute to maintaining the integrity of the elections, there are several interesting requirements that must be met: you must be an Indonesian citizen aged at least 25 years, free from criminal records and practical political activities, and of course, possess integrity and strong communication skills.

After meeting these criteria, prospective PTPS will undergo a strict administrative selection and interview process. If selected, they will receive intensive training to prepare for this important task.

5. Is the salary of PTPS sufficient for their heavy duties?

A salary of Rp800,000 per month may sound ordinary as compensation for supervisory duties, but PTPS is expected to demonstrate a high spirit of integrity to uphold the continuity of democracy, which is their main mission.

6. What is the difference between PTPS and KPPS?

PTPS and KPPS play crucial roles in maintaining the integrity of elections; PTPS acts as a careful supervisor in the voting process, while KPPS serves as a reliable executor.

Both collaborate harmoniously, ensuring that every step of the voting process is conducted honestly and transparently, in order to create fair and trustworthy elections.

7. What are the sanctions for PTPS who violate the rules?

PTPS who violate the code of ethics or rules may face varying administrative sanctions, including dismissal, depending on the seriousness of the violation.
