jpnn.com, YOGYAKARTA – The Coordinating Minister of Political, Legal and Security Affairs (Menko Polhukam), Mahfud MD, stated that so far there have been no reports of regions implementing Pilkada 2020 in a Covid-19 cluster.
“Alhamdulillah, there is no case that the pilkada crowd has become a new group,” Mahfud MD said during a press conference after the Reflection and Screening of the Simultaneous Implementation of Pilkada 2020, in Yogyakarta on Monday (14 / 12).
The former head of the Constitutional Court (MK) also admitted that previously many parties had lobbied for the Pilkada 2020 to be postponed because it had the potential to become a Corona virus transmission group.
In fact, Mahfud said, there were those who calculated using mathematical models on campus who said that there would be 3.2 million people exposed to Covid-19 if the regional elections continued.
“It turns out that today, the terrifying image of 3.2 million people, today, today, is infected throughout Indonesia, which includes 617,830 local elections or not,” said Pamekasan Minister , Mature.
Mahfud said that if the estimate were projected to January 2021 or up to 15 days with the current average of around 5,000 people per day, the figure would not even reach 3.2 million people.
“If the average is 7,000 per day, now the average day is already 5,000. That’s only roughly, the total is 800,000,” Mahfud said.
However, he thanks the various parties who have warned about the potential risk of transmission of Covid-19 as a manifestation of love for the nation and the country.
