Golkar East Java: Prabowo-Airlangga Pair With The 2024 Presidential Election Complex

Chairman of the Regional Leadership Council (DPD) I of the East Java Golkar Party M. Sarmuji said the Prabowo Subianto duo with the General Chair of the Golkar Party Airlangga Hartarto was a complementary couple in the 2024 Presidential Election.

"Incidentally, Pak Airlangga was born from East Java, so it fits in my opinion. Pak Prabowo and Pak Arilangga are complementary couples," said Sarmuji as quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, August 26.

According to him, the Golkar Party is trying to pair Airlangga Hartarto as a vice presidential candidate to accompany Prabowo Subianto.

However, the political party bearing the banyan tree has joined the coalition party so that it must first be negotiated with the coalition of political parties.

"In the decision of the second dictum national meeting, handing over the full mandate to the general chairman to build a coalition as well as determine how the negotiations are going. Golkar East Java is ready to support it," he said.

Sarmuji explained that Prabowo had good political vision and insight and happened to be the Minister of Defense. Meanwhile, the figure of Airlangga has economic technocratic abilities that are needed to answer the nation's needs.

"Hopefully the duet of the couple can be right, but it's up to the General Chairperson of the Golkar Party who will negotiate with the general chairman of the coalition political parties that carry Prabowo," he said.

Sarmuji said Prabowo had the political gene of the Golkar Party because it was born from the womb of the Golkar Party and grew up in a work system. That way, his insight about building a nation is almost identical to the party bearing the banyan tree symbol.

"Nyaris tidak butuh penyesuaian yang sulit dengan Pak Prabowo, mendukung Prabowo sama dengan mendukung Golkar dan mudah bagi kami bisa mendorong Prabowo menjadi capres dan menggerakkan mesin partai," ujarnya.
