He often discusses political parties with young people. But, said Ganjar, most of them were not interested in joining because of various negative records.

This condition is considered to indicate that young people want practical things. In fact, occupying public office must all proceed.

"So the situation that drives them to become instant children, yes, please obey them gracefully," said Ganjar.

"Our senior task is to provide education that the process is important, including the process in our foreign politics," he concluded.
