It's just that the decision in Rapimcab, the name of the vice presidential candidate, was taken to a higher forum to be determined. "If the proposal is seen in the mass media, it's the DPC-DPC, the regional administrators have then made a rapid meeting, proposing one name. But then, the name will also be Gerindra's decision when it is taken to a higher forum in the form of rapimnas or Rakernas which then accommodates the aspirations of the proposals from below," he concluded.
