Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – Pos Indonesia is rebranding to POS IND: Pos Indonesia Integrated National Distribution.
Minister of Communication and Information (Menkominfo) Budi Arie Setiadi said that this transformation was progress. This rebranding is expected to allow POS IND to reach more logistics departments.
“We see progress in the transformation. So this is how Postel used to be, communication has been transformed, now PT Pos is also expected to carry out a transformation because PT Pos is expected to focus more on logistics, there will be less manual mailing, but logistics is very strategic and is really needed by residents society, especially in this large, vast country,” said Budi when met by POSIND Day in Jakarta, Wednesday (7/2/2023).
Election Logistics Distribution
Apart from talking about POS IND, Budi also discussed election logistics distribution.
He said that currently logistics such as ballot papers had arrived at the districts/cities, and in the next few days they would arrive at the sub-districts and then be distributed to each TPS (Polling Place).
“It's still 7 days, (currently) it has reached each district/city, for example the 800 thousand voting cards have arrived. Later they will be distributed again to the sub-districts, to each TPS. The time is sufficient and I think the time is right, Budi said.
Pos Indonesia itself is one of the companies trusted by the KPU and KPUD to distribute election logistics.
“Actually, this started last year, starting from the ballot box, then equipment, then seals, ink and so on, that was last year and this year the ballot papers,” said PT Pos Indonesia President Director Faizal Rochmad Djoemadi on the same occasion.
“So we vary, some distribute to provinces and districts, some from districts to sub-districts, some get assignments from sub-districts to TPS,” he added.
He stated that all distribution related to the election was assisted by security forces. Some were assisted by the TNI and assisted by the police.
“So we do have a standard between one point and another, there is a report on the delivery of goods. And at the end, everything is well documented, including the time. Everything is guarded by security forces and the TNI.” he concluded.
