As part of the ongoing research on contemporary trends in Indonesian politics prior to the 2019 general election, the 2018 Simultaneous Regional Executive Elections is being studied to determine the bilateral and regional policy implications to Singapore. The project plans to conduct the study in the Riau Islands, North Sumatera, West Java, East Java, and West Kalimantan provinces, which all serve as political barometer for the 2019 presidential election. The project also plans to study the elections by highlighting three main themes that is believed to be very crucial to understanding the 2018 regional elections and their future implications towards the 2019 general election: (i) The relationship between candidates and political parties, (ii) Islam and politics at regional level, and (iii) Business and politics relationship at regional level.
