.

On Oct. 3, 2017, the General Elections Commission (KPU) started work on its big job towards the 2019 Simultaneous General Elections. Starting with the registration of political parties on Oct. 3-16, 2017, the KPU has begun an historical journey of democracy in Indonesia, which has been acknowledged as the third largest democratic country in the world.

KPU\'s great work will, of course, be in the spotlight of all parties, from the participants of the general elections to the government, the House of Representatives (DPR), the public, and to the international world. The reason is that, with the complexity that exists here in running general elections, potential exists for the emergence of major problems at each step. Moreover, it is currently designing how to implement the new electoral system that uses the pure Sainte-Laguë conversion method. It needs to be extra careful here so as not to cause fundamental problems in the future.
