JAKARTA - The Indonesian Communicologists Association considers that there are no problems related to the call to prayer on television, played by Ganjar Pranowo.

Chairman of the Communicologist Association Suko Widodo feels there is no problem whatsoever with such creativity and does not violate the law.

"From the side of the regulations, nothing has been violated. This is not a campaign period. Not registered with the KPU as a presidential candidate either. There is no material for any campaign in it. I am confused where the controversy lies," said Suko in his statement, Monday, September 11.

Pelita Harapan University communication expert Emrus Sihombing added, before Ganjar's face, there were also many other people's faces in the broadcast. In this context, Ganjar is an ordinary person, there is no difference with the faces of other people who appear on the call to prayer.

"Ajakan Ganjar maupun semua yang pernah tampil di adzan itu adalah sesuatu yang baik."

In line with that, researchers and communication teachers at the London School of Public Relations Iwel Sastra stated that it was a bit difficult to find reasons to fuss over the adhan broadcast.

"Which article is violated by the Broadcasting Law?" he added.

Political communication researcher, at the Salemba School Institute, Effendi Gazali expressed his views, and he saw of course that the issue could have rolled into public discussion.

"Especially if you want to imitate it, the impression is that it is not creative. On the regulatory side, there must be no aspect that is violated. The invitation is also in a positive direction." he said.

Effendi did not miss adding, if you want to be more nurturing, you can also make a variety of call to prayer with some of the faces of our national figures. So it seems that there is not only one figure.

Meanwhile, Hasanuddin University communication expert Hasrullah added, the faces of other scholars could be added immediately. For example, the face of Mr. Guru Bajang, or several other faces from Eastern Indonesia. So that the landscape is complete from all over Indonesia.

He also proposed that all national figures make communication methods that are no less creative than fussing over something he invited to be positive.
