JAKARTA - Candidate pairs for president and vice president number 1, Anies Baswedan and Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin) will conduct safaris for Christmas celebrations in various regions.However, the captain of the Anies-Muhaimin National Winning Team (Timnas AMIN) M. Syaugi emphasized that the Christmas celebration with his presidential and vice presidential candidates during the 2024 presidential election campaign was not carried out in the church, but in the hall or open space.Given, Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections clearly prohibits political campaign activities in places of worship."Indeed, according to the rules, it is not allowed. Maybe on the safari trip, he will tell him what good things have been done by Mr. Anies, it can be door to door. So, it doesn't have to be in a place of worship, it's not allowed there. This is just to celebrate," Syaugi said at a press conference at the AMIN Winning House, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Monday, November 4.Continuing, the Chairperson of the AMIN Christmas Safari Steering Committee, Shephard Supit emphasized that Anies-Cak Imin would not carry out campaign activities with an invitation to choose clearly, but only to celebrate religious holidays together."At this AMIN Christmas Safari, we do not campaign orally, it is directly open. The point is that we celebrate Christmas here, with us presenting Pak Anies and Muhaimin, or there will be representatives of the national team if they do not attend. So indeed we are not campaigning at places of worship, but we celebrate Christmas," said Shephard.Chairman of the AMIN Christmas Safari Committee Henry Hoesada explained that the theme taken in the event was peaceful Christmas to bring change."The meaning of this Christmas is extraordinary and we both know that our presidential candidate, Mr. Anies, really pays attention to all religions, especially with his leadership in Jakarta, has proven that Christmas celebrations can run," he said.The locations where Christmas Safari is held include Jabodetabek, Maluku, East Nusa Tenggara, Manado, Yogyakarta, and Central Java.
"This is a very different concept, we hold the AMIN Christmas Safari, which is also attended by committees from other religions, from Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Confucians, Catholics, and Protestants. It's all to create peace greetings, Christmas greetings for change. happened, "added Henry.
