#diaspora rights

Living far from Indonesia does not mean we have no access to the state. KBRI and KJRI are an important part of Indonesia's presence abroad. For that reason, every WNI should keep the contact details of the nearest Indonesian representative office, know its area of jurisdiction, and follow official information from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Indonesian representative offices.

Not every Indonesian citizen knows how to register, how to check their voter data, or how to use the voting methods available. For that reason, increasing the political participation of the diaspora takes more than simply saying, “Use your right to vote.” Information that is easy to understand and adequate access are also essential parts of democracy.
