User:Juxlos/Regional People's Representative Council

A Regional People's Representative Council (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah, abbreviated DPRD) refers to an elected assembly within one of Indonesia's administrative subdivisions. The body exists for all Indonesian provinces and second-level administrative divisions outside Jakarta's constituent cities and regencies.

The body is based on the Constitution of Indonesia, which mandated the creation of such a body for local governance.

Election
Members of the legislative body are elected once every five years, alongside the election for the People's Representative Council and, starting in the 2019 general election, the President of Indonesia. All members must be affiliated with a political party and are elected from multi-member electoral districts.
