Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) chairwoman Megawati Soekarnoputri (fourth right) swears in members of the PDI-P’s Central Executive Board (DPP) for the 2019-2024 term during the closing event of the fifth PDI-P Congress at the Grand Inna Bali Beach Hotel, Bali, Saturday (10/8/2019).

Surprising. The number of young politicians who will enter the House of Representatives (DPR) for the 2019-2024 term turned out to be far less than the 2014-2019 term.

Based on the Kompas R&D study, the number of legislative candidates aged 40 years and under who passed to the DPR for the 2019-2024 term is only 72 out of 575 DPR members or 12.5 percent. That number is down compared to the figure in the 2014-2019 term, which stood at 92 people from a total of 560 members of the DPR or 16.4 percent (Kompas, 12/8/2019).
