TPN Ganjar-Mahfud Welcomes Jokowi To Invite 3 Presidential Candidates To The Palace

JAKARTA - The Ganjar-Mahfud National Winning Team (TPN) positively welcomed President Joko Widodo (Jokowi)'s move to invite three presidential candidates (candidates) to the Presidential Palace, Jakarta today, Monday, October 30. This effort is said to be able to show disappointment and is considered capable of creating a conducive atmosphere.

"If this is done (panday together, red) will show disappointment between the president and all presidential candidates in front of the community, and can create a conducive atmosphere during the upcoming campaign season in welcoming the 2024 General Election," said TPN spokesman Ganjar-Mahfud, Chico Hakim in his statement to reporters, Monday, October 30.

Even so, Chico admitted that he did not know for sure about the agenda. "We have not received valid information," he said.

Previously, President Jokowi invited Anies Baswedan, Ganjar Pranowo, and Prabowo Subianto this afternoon to the Presidential Palace, Jakarta. The three of them are presidential candidates who will run in the 2024 presidential election.

"Well, this afternoon the three were invited to the palace," said NasDem Party Secretary General Hermawi Taslim to reporters, Monday, October 30.

Hermawi has not yet detailed the meeting. However, NasDem considered this concrete evidence of Jokowi's statement regarding the support in question.

"The president once said that he supports the three presidential candidates for the good of the nation," he said.

"Maybe this is a form of support in question," continued Hermawi.

The three presidential candidates will attend without their vice presidential candidates (cawapres). Currently, Anies is paired with Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin, Ganjar is partnering with Mahfud MD, and Prabowo is running with Gibran Rakabuming Raka who is the son of President Joko and serves as Mayor of Solo.

"Three presidential candidates were invited to the palace today without a vice presidential candidate," he said.
