JAKARTA - Former DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan and his family watched Formula E Jakarta 2023 in Ancol, North Jakarta.

Anies came to the Jakarta International E-Prix Circuit (JIEC) Ancol with his wife Fery Farhati, as well as his son and son-in-law Mutiara Baswedan-Ali Saleh Alhurariby.

Anies wore a black T-shirt with the words "Jakarta Cyclists" which contained the Jakarta Plus "branding" logo. Anies admitted to buying his own ticket, just like other viewers.

"I bought a ticket, I'm not an invitation, like the others. I came today, I don't know if tomorrow," Anies said as quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, June 3.

Anies also hopes that the implementation of electric racing cars, Formula E, can run safely and smoothly.

"Hopefully the 'race' will also run smoothly. Everyone feels happiness, brings the name Jakarta, Indonesia is better," he explained.

He said he was grateful that the tickets for the sale of Formula E which were held for two days, Saturday (3/6) and Sunday (4/6) had all been sold.

"This illustrates that Formula E is an activity with high enthusiasm. And it is even held twice now. Hopefully, there will be more (AUDIences) in the future," said Anies.
