Ganjar Pranowo was greeted by thousands of volunteers at the Selong National Field, East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara (ANTARA)

EAST LOMBOK - The presidential candidate (candidate) from the PDI-P Ganjar Pranowo asked volunteers or residents of West Nusa Tenggara not to make hoax news on social media that can harm themselves and others.

"Use social media to spread positive information," said Ganjar during a gathering with thousands of volunteers at the Selong National Field, East Lombok Regency, quoted by ANTARA, Sunday, June 18.

He said that West Nusa Tenggara residents are very religious, so that in using social media, both Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook and YouTube and other social media still use polite and kind sentences.

"Don't hurt other people in using social media," he said.

On social media, it's already crowded, some are booming, some are making hoax news. However, Ganjar left a message to the people who gathered in the National field to remain wise in using social media.

"I entrust it, don't bully and don't make hoax news," he said.

He said President Jokowi for 10 years had provided quite a lot for the people of Indonesia, be it road infrastructure development.

Then at this time Indonesia is trying to become an independent country by managing natural resources independently, in order to improve people's welfare.

"That's our homework together, we must provide added value for all of President Jokowi's programs. We will oversee it together," he said.

"I am also supported as a presidential candidate by the Daily Chair of Perindo, TGB Muhammad Zainul Majdi," he said.

Previously, the PDI-P presidential candidate Ganjar Pranowo continued his visit to Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) on Sunday (18/6) morning.

In Kota Seribu Masjid itu, Ganjar diagendakan mengikuti sejumlah kegiatan, diantaranya konsolidasi di Kantor DPD PDIP NTB, bersilaturahmi ke Kantor DPW PPP NTB, berjatijara ke makam TGKH Zainuddin Abdul Madjid, dan berkocarasi di Lapangan Nasional.

Chairman of the DPD PDIP NTB Rachmat Hidayat in his official statement said Ganjar's activities began with giving directions on the PDIP consolidation agenda, then heading to the NTB PPP DPW Office.

"After that, just go to the tomb garden of Mr. Guru Bajang or TGB who is a national hero. After leaving the tomb, only to the National Square which will be attended by 25 thousand to 28 thousand PDIP masses. Later there will be all volunteers, maybe more. I will spend my strength for the 28 thousand," said Rachmat.

According to Rachmat, the National Field is the same place as the Chairperson of the PDIP DPP Megawati Soekarnoputri and the President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo (Jokowi) to sit as head of state.
