If You Win The Jakarta Dharma-Kun Pilkada, Free JIS For Persija, Here's Heru Budi's Response

JAKARTA - Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono was reluctant to comment much on the desire of the Jakarta cagub-cawagub pair Dharma Pongrekun-Kun Wardana who wanted to make the use of the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) free for Persija club.

"Regarding the governor candidate programs, I did not comment, I left it to them," said Heru when met at SDN Gunung 01, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, Tuesday, September 3.

According to Heru, he has no right to respond to whether or not the vision and mission and program for the 2024 Pilkada candidates in Jakarta are realistic or not.

"Later, if they win, they will. So go ahead," said Heru.

The independent candidate for governor of Jakarta, Dharma Pongrekun, boasts that he will make the use of JIS free for the Persija Jakarta club if he is elected as Governor-Deputy Governor of Jakarta with his partner, Kun Wardana.

Dharma admitted that he would review the policy of using a stadium managed by PT Jakarta Propertindo (Jakpro) BUMD so that Jakmania could watch his favorite club at JIS without any problems with expensive rental rates.

This was revealed by Dharma after officially registering as a candidate for the Jakarta Regional Election with Kun at the DKI Jakarta KPU Office.

"So we will review how good it is for JIS to be used, it can be enjoyed by Persija fans, especially my friends from Jakmania. If it is possible that the budget exists, then if necessary we will free it," said Dharma at the DKI Jakarta KPU Office, Thursday, August 29.

On that occasion, Dharma revealed that his vision and mission in participating in the Jakarta gubernatorial election contestation was a safe effort to save lives for the people of Jakarta.

"Our concrete program is only one, saving the soul of our family. Save it. I invite all of us to unite, together, to fight together to save our families," he said.
