[11] In the 2024 Indonesian legislative election, Komeng ran as a candidate for the Regional Representative Council from West Java.

[13] His electoral portrait featured Komeng with googly eyes and an open mouth, which he intentionally selected.

[16] During a plenary vote-counting meeting at the national level, participants were recorded to quip Komeng's "uhuy!"
