Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo admitted that he had never been separated from a series of coordinations with the central government, especially President Jokowi. In overseeing various central government programs in building Central Java, Ganjar Pranowo admitted that he continued to coordinate.

He conveyed this confession when giving an explanation at the XVI Apeksi National Working Meeting 2023 in Makassar, South Sulawesi, Thursday, July 13. One of the successions of his coordination with Jokowi, Ganjar Pranowo, said that while he was guarding the dam construction project in Wadas, Bener District, Purworejo Regency, Central Java.

Ganjar Pranowo said he was grateful because one of the issues that was often complained about and became a black stamp for him in the Wadas Dam case was about compensation. Ganjar Pranowo said that thanks to his coordination with President Jokowi, the government has now paid a profit of Rp. 11 billion to the Head of the Rejecting Group.

"Funds of years can never work. We are lobbying half dead to get this. Of course there are pros and cons. No one wants to be responsible. I came to the location, I said that I am the person in charge, I am cleaning this up, I asked to come out, and I went to the person," said Ganjar Pranowo.

"But this information is not divided properly. So I say that the Head of the Rejecting Group has received a profit of Rp. 11 billion. I communicated with Pak Jokowi, Mr. skin's permission for compensation was very good. It made it easier for us to talk to them. Now 100 percent of everything has been measured for land, 100 percent, "explained Ganjar Pranowo.

The man who will be a presidential candidate from the PDI-P also talked about his 50 minutes of valuable coordination with Jokowi ahead of Eid, especially in the context of economic recovery.

"I got a briefing on April 21 for about 50 minutes flying from Jakarta accompanying him alone. The president conveyed how the global economic condition was not good, infrastructure must be done quickly, and how the role of regional heads must be done quickly," added Ganjar Pranowo.

Not only that, the acceleration of economic growth was also carried out by Ganjar Pranowo in Central Java as a result of President Jokowi's coordination. He told how Central Java became one of the pilot places for the progress of the international scale industry.

"When the President ordered Central Java to become a place of example, so (regencies) Batang. 9 months we pursue and compete with Vietnam. But sir, there is an HR problem, so we make a vocal school there to prepare them to enter this area," explained Ganjar Pranowo.
