As Indonesia awaits the
official results of Wednesday’s general elections
, the tragic cases of polling officers and policemen who reportedly died due to extreme fatigue have gained the attention of social media users. They have started using the hashtag #MartirDemokrasi (MartyrsofDemocracy) to honour those who died while helping to ensure that the world’s biggest single-day election could be carried out smoothly.
Six polling station working committee officers were reported to have died from exhaustion after working long hours on Wednesday, the day when more than 192 million voters had a chance to vote at more than 800,000 polling stations across the country.
In one case, a 54-year-old officer, who had been working 12 hours non-stop, passed out and was rushed to a nearby health centre, where he died later, reported The Jakarta Post. His family said he had a history of asthma.

News portal detik.com reported that 10 policemen also died of exhaustion while carrying out their duties during the election. Some passed out while carrying the ballot boxes to the counting centres.
One Twitter user said on Thursday: “I can’t imagine how tired they must have been. We should really appreciate how hard. the team had been working to prepare for this election.”
Indonesian authorities on Friday continued to maintain their vigilance against any possible unrest, as presidential challenger
Prabowo Subianto
still refused to concede defeat to incumbent President
Joko Widodo
more popularly known as Jokowi even though quick count results from independent pollsters showed the latter in the lead by between 9 and 11 percentage points.

Ban all elections globally and let people die by billions.

Must brutally force and carnage global population level and permanently capped below a safe limit that they will not ruin planet earth natural ecology. Man living standard also must be suppressed or deprived so that they are not squandering resources and ruin environment.

Must destroy and punish the wrong concepts of naive greed and unlimited HUMAN-1st pampering values. They are not just casing total extinction of man but also every living things on planet earth. These toxic values must be destroyed and permanently prevented. Never allow them to emerge again ever.

Over 100 Indonesian election workers, police die from exhaustion in recently concluded polls

SINGAPORE — More than 100 Indonesian election workers and police officers have died from exhaustion following the simultaneous presidential and legislative polls held in the country last week, according to a report by Bloomberg.
Over seven million workers had been deployed in the elections, which saw almost 245,000 candidates vie for about 20,000 posts. It was the first time that voters had chosen the president and members of the national parliament on the same day in the world’s third largest democracy.
The country’s coordinating minister for political, legal, and security affairs Wiranto told Bloomberg that 139 officials were confirmed dead as of Wednesday (April 24), while the General Elections Commission said more than 500 fell ill after the vote.
The deaths had triggered calls for a review of the simultaneous presidential and legislative polls, Bloomberg said.
The elections on April 17 saw the participation of an estimated 81 per cent of the 193 million eligible voters in the country, Bloomberg reported.
Vote counting is still in progress, though unofficial quick counts showed incumbent Joko Widodo winning the race by about 10 percentage points over his challenger Prabowo Subianto.
This year’s presidential election is a rematch of the 2014 polls which saw Mr Widodo beating Mr Subianto by 6 percentage points.
The official results will be announced by the election commission on May 22.
In a statement this week, minister of home affairs Tjahjo Kumolo said that the Indonesian government will review the concurrent elections in parliament “to ensure the process is more efficient and effective”, Bloomberg reported.
The election commission plans to discuss separating the presidential and legislative elections with a lawmakers’ panel overseeing the rules and the government, CNN Indonesia reported, citing Mr Viryan Azis, a commissioner.
Indonesian vice-president Muhammad Jusuf Kalla, who called this year’s poll “the most complicated”, has also backed a review of the simultaneous elections to ease the burden on officials, according to Detik.com. AGENCIES
