The mayor of Bandung, Yana Mulyana, also expressed this hope when observing the implementation of the PPS (Voting Committee) Computer Assisted Test (CAT) selection at SMP 2 Bandung, Monday 9 January 2023. There, Yana was accompanied by the Chairperson of the Bandung City KPU, Suharti.

"Of course they have to be competent. That's why today a recruitment process was carried out to find out what competencies they have," he said.

Apart from being conducive, Yana hopes that the participation rate at the 2024 democratic party will reach 90 percent.

"Apart from being conducive, hopefully the level of participation will also be high. Because legitimacy is one of the reasons for high participation. We hope it can be above 90 percent (participation level)," he said.

Please note, the PPS recruitment process has been running for some time. There are 2024 registrants. Of these, 1022 applicants passed the administrative process. While the number of PPS needed is 453 people.

In the same place, the Chairperson of the KPU for the City of Bandung, Suharti explained, the CAT test contains 75 questions with a time of 90 minutes.

"This question only has 75 questions, the time is 90 minutes. However, the weight of the questions is different, there are those with a score of 3, 2 and 1 (points). So the maximum score is 150 if the participants can solve the questions. Because there are many registrants, this selection is very strict and the CAT results it was published," he said.

Suharti revealed that the backgrounds of the participants were very diverse. Starting from retirees, millennials, to "fresh graduates".

"Hopefully the selected participants can use the application that will be implemented later. The point is not clueless (technology stuttering) and understands IT," explained Suharti.(yan)**
