Indonesia votes – how it works and who is running

By Dr Pia Dannhauer

Key Messages:

In February 2024, Indonesians will vote in the single biggest election in the country’s history

Their vote will determine the next President, Indonesia’s central decision-maker, as well as the make-up of the national parliament

This election matters for Australia, because the priorities and preferences of the Indonesian president substantially shape the country’s foreign policy agenda and Australia’s place within it
