"We have accommodated aspirations, inputs, evaluations from fellow village organizations, later we will discuss them again, we schedule next week so that we can find the best solution to the existing problems later," said Gibran after attending an event held by several village apparatus associations at Gelora Bung Karno (GBK), Senayan, Central Jakarta, Sunday, November 19, confiscated by Antara.

When asked about the support for village officials for him, Gibran was reluctant to comment and said what had been done earlier was to prepare solutions for various things faced by the village community.

"If the problem of supporting support will be later, we will find the best solution first, we will absorb it first, whatever the problem is. If you support support it, just wait, while walking," he said.

The activity was also attended by several figures, namely the Secretary General (Sekjen) of the Gerindra Party Ahmad Muzani, to the former Chairman of PSSI Mochamad Iriawan or Iwan Bule.

On the same occasion, the National Coordinator of United Village Muhammad Asri Annas said the United Village National Gathering was an annual routine activity and this year was attended by thousands of village heads, villagetribution agencies and village officials.

Annas said she not only invited Gibran, but also Presidential Candidate Prabowo Subianto and other presidential and vice presidential pairs to convey the aspirations of the village community.

"Today we present Mas Gibran Rakabuming Raka as an inspirational young figure. We also actually invited Mr. Prabowo. We also actually communicated with all presidential candidates," said Annas at GBK, Sunday.

The third is to improve the welfare of village officials, BPD, and all organizational instruments that support the government," he said.
