election of executives and council members of local government organizations 
according to Buddhism. So that people can use their own right to make decisions in 
selecting representatives to enter into administrative activities of local government 
organizations according to Buddhist principles. Although Buddhism has various 
political concepts But most tend to look at the perspective of the processes and 
leadership qualities of local politicians, some of which still lack criteria and thinking 
methods for selecting people. A mistake or very bad selection causes the area to lose 
the opportunity to develop. In addition, when selecting, it appears that corruption 
results in a great deal of damage to that local government organization. Is there any 
hidden implication that is called the 4 principles of prejudice, namely 1) not making a 
decision out of personal love or not (Phantha) 2) not making a decision out of anger 
or not (Anastakati) 3) not whether they decide to choose with fear or not (bhayakati) 
and whether they do not make a decision out of ignorance or not. Therefore, the

according to the 4 Buddhist principles mentioned above is indeed a representative 
selection behavior that Risk of acquiring bad politicians who can upset the public.
