Pramono-Rano Teamses Reaffirm Volunteers To RK-Suswono Unknown

JAKARTA - The head of the volunteer coordinator for the Pramono Anung-Rano Karno winning team, Amarsyah, explained that dozens of people who claimed to be Pramono-Rano volunteers had withdrawn their support and are now supporting the Ridwan Kamil-Suswono pair in the Jakarta gubernatorial election.

Amarsyah emphasized that he did not recognize the group of people who defected. They, he said, were not registered in hundreds of volunteer organs that were carried by the coordination of the Pramono-Rano Volunteer Joint House.

"I feel that I have never known the figure of the person who claimed to be a volunteer on the RIDO event. I have asked the Volunteers of Sobat Mas Pram Bang Doel, they remain perpendicular to Mas Pram and Bang Doel. So the declaration (at the Rido event) carries a personal name, not an organ," Amarsyah told reporters, Monday, November 25.

On the one hand, Amarsyah admitted that he did not worry about the declaration of support for the KIM Plus paslon. Moreover, according to him, true volunteers will not easily change support.

"I don't want to bother with that. Let's say he used to be a volunteer and now he has moved support, it doesn't matter. That's right. After all, many of Emil's supporters also moved to us," said Amarsyah.

Furthermore, Amarsyah emphasized that currently the volunteers are focusing on preparing surveillance efforts at polling stations (TPS) on voting day.

"We volunteers are now focusing on maintaining the advantage of votes and supervising the potential for fraud, so we can't take care of it like that," he added.

As is known, dozens of people on behalf of Pramono-Rano volunteers changed course and expressed RK-Suswono support. The declaration was disclosed in the grand RK-Suswono campaign at Banteng Square, Central Jakarta on Saturday, November 23.

Secretary General (Sekjen) Sobat Mas Pram-Bang Doel, Yahya Ibnu Sabil, emphasized that he did not betray him, but only changed his decision to choose RK-Suswono.

"Jakarta needs a just leader and Jakarta must move forward. Therefore, today, I, the secretary general of Sobat Mas Pram-Bang Doel, declare, support Mr. Ridwan Kamil and Mr. Suswono to become governors and deputy governors of Jakarta," he said.
