Alat Peraga Kampanye Semrawut

Summary

In the past month, Jakarta has seen an increase in political campaign materials such as banners and posters, as legislative candidates and political parties vie for public attention. However, the placement of these campaign tools appears chaotic and unregulated, with different cities and districts having their own rules. Generally, educational institutions, government buildings, and public facilities like bus stops and pedestrian crossings are off-limits for campaign displays. In Jakarta, specific areas like Pancoran intersections are prohibited for campaign materials, but many have been observed in these places for over a week without any action from authorities. The disorder not only mars the city's appearance but also poses traffic safety risks, especially during the rainy season with strong winds. The KPU continues to urge candidates to follow regulations and place campaign materials in allowed areas, while hoping for coordination between Bawaslu and local law enforcement to manage the campaign tools effectively.
