Young Order Founder Responds To Dirty Vote: Illusion And Blankness

JAKARTA - The documentary film Dirty Vote received the spotlight from the Founder of the Young Order, Fathul Nugroho. Fathul called it a hoax related to the issue of fraudulent design in the 2024 Election. In a podcast on the YouTube channel "Reahsik" entitled "Dirty Vote Blank" with the host HMU Kurniadi on Monday 12 February, Fathul criticized the content of the film which he judged to have become common.Fathul asserted that the claims in the film were merely an illusion that was made as if there was fraud in the Election. "This is more to nonsense because it is a common matter. That is why they frame this as if there was fraud," he said. According to him, the 2024 election has been going on without any signs of fraud, with all the processes and technicalities that have been carried out transparently and known by the general public. "Actually, this election went smoothly starting from the technical preparation then the candidate debate and the implementation of the campaign both in private and open. And this is all smooth," he explained. Fathul added that the film directed by Dandhy Dwi Laksono was a form of framing that would not affect the public's view. Moreover, this film was released in quiescence. And finally in this quiescence they frame as if there was fraud. In fact, I have traveled throughout Indonesia to meet young children and activists. They are excited that this election is the most democratic election,' he added. Fathul's argument states this film as a framing because it believes voter participation in the 2024 elections reaches 80 percent.' And we believe the voter participation will be high by about 80 percent. And this is a historical record that voter participation will be very high especially from millennials and Gen Z. So, this film is nonsense,'s concluded.

The Young Order, or Orda, is a movement built by the Gibran Center. According to the Secretary General of the Gibran Center, Fathul Nugroho, this movement aims to bring change and revival among young Indonesians. Different from the Old Order and New Order which were more focused on political and social structure in their time, the Young Order focused on empowerment, creativity, and innovation of the younger generation.
