Ganjar Rejects Prabowo's Invitation: Today's Debate, Why Does It Have To Be Tomorrow?

Presidential Candidate (Capres) number 3, Ganjar Pranowo rejected Prabowo Subianto's invitation to hold a meeting to discuss data regarding the Minimum Essential Force (MEF) or Indonesia's minimal main force.

According to him, the discussion must be resolved in the presidential election or presidential election debate held by the General Election Commission (KPU), today.

"No need. The debate is today, why should it be tomorrow?" Ganjar told reporters, Sunday, January 7.

In fact, Ganjar had mentioned Prabowo, who seemed not ready to face the third presidential election debate.

Because, if the presidential candidate number two is ready to undergo a debate, he should be able to take advantage of the time that has been provided.

"If it's not ready, don't argue. If you want to be ready, then prepare well for the debate. So if the time is limited, that's the best test," he said.

Ganjar also stated that if Prabowo could not open the data during the 2024 presidential election debate, it would not be the right step to open another space.

"So if you don't pay attention, don't challenge in other spaces. Other spaces will have their own space because later you will talk to others as the Minister of Defense. He will argue later with the DPR," said Ganjar.
