JAKARTA - Deputy General Chairperson (Waketum) of the Gerindra Party, Habiburrokhman, responded to a statement by the Chairman of the Advisory Council of the PPP DPP M. Romahurmuziy or Rommy, who mentioned the meeting of President Joko Widodo and the six general chairmen of government-supporting political parties at the State Palace last night discussing the opportunity for the Ganjar Pranowo-Prabowo Subianto duet. Gerindra confirmed that the information Rommy said was not true or a hoax. It's a hoax, a hoax!," said Habiburrokhman, Wednesday, May 3.

The member of the DPR emphasized that talks between political parties supporting the government and the president at the Palace only discussed the latest global situation. In particular, related to the economy.

"What is clear is that there is no discussion (duet) of Ganjar-Prabowo, nothing," he said again. Habiburrokhman then questioned the information that Rommy got. "We don't know where did Mr. Rommy get it from?," he said. Previously, Rommy mentioned the meeting between Jokowi and the head of the political party tonight to discuss the formation of presidential candidates (candidates) and vice presidential candidates (cawapres) who will compete in the 2024 presidential election. Rommy said that PDI-P candidate Ganjar Pranowo had the opportunity to be paired with General Chairperson Gerindra Prabowo Subianto. "In addition to halal bihalal, the meeting tonight which is planned to be attended by all the chairpersons of political parties supporting the government minus NasDem, has the potential to realize a grand coalition with Ganjar-Prabowo formation as presidential-cawapres," said Rommy in his statement, Tuesday, May 2. The consideration, because the two figures are at the top of the survey results and electability polling. However, in his view, the 2019 election winner party is more appropriate as the presidential candidate. While the next winning political party as the cawapres applicator.

"Of course this has passed away to Prabowo, whether he is willing to become a vice presidential candidate in the midst of his party's mandate to become a presidential candidate," said Rommy.

If the grand coalition does not materialize, Rommy assessed that tonight's meeting could finalize the distribution of power from six political parties supporting the government to continue its ongoing development in the current government.

"This distribution is important to ensure the continuity of development that has been carried out by the current government, especially mega-mega infrastructure projects such as IKN, toll roads, dams, airports, and others," Rommy explained.
