Ahmad Dhani Ramal Pilkada DKI Jakarta 2017 Mirip Pilpres 2014 dalam Sejarah Hari Ini, 30 Maret 2016

JAKARTA - History today, 10 years ago, March 30, 2016, musician Ahmad Dhani predicted that the 2017 DKI Jakarta Regional Election would be similar to the 2014 Presidential Election. Jokowi voters in the presidential election will still choose Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok). Likewise, Prabowo Subianto voters will choose Ahok's opponent.

Previously, no one doubted the hot tension in the 2014 presidential election. All Indonesian people were divided into two opposing camps. The supporting camp of Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and the supporting camp of Prabowo.

Jokowi and Ahok have a long history. Both of them have run for the position of Jakarta leader in political contests, the 2012 DKI Jakarta Regional Election. Both of them then succeeded in becoming the Governor and Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta.

Jokowi-Ahok did not waste the leadership in building Jakarta. Bureaucracy was improved. Infrastructure was added. The narrative made the two leaders communicative. As a result, all kinds of complaints from Jakarta residents were immediately responded to.

Jokowi's popularity also increased sharply. He then ran as a presidential candidate in the 2014 presidential election. Jokowi fought Prabowo Subianto who was the General Chairman of the Gerindra Party. The political contest was hot.

This condition makes all Indonesian people divided into two camps. Those who support Jokowi and those who support Prabowo. The 2014 presidential election was fierce. No camp wants the king to lose.

Both camps boast of their achievements. Black campaigns are everywhere. The fight was then won by Jokowi, who had a quick version of the fast count of several survey institutions. However, the Prabowo camp did not immediately believe.

They admitted that they did not really trust the survey agency. Their votes for Prabowo were considered superior. The result was that both camps claimed to win. This condition was considered dangerous until President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) had to take a stand.

"What did I get? With the quick count, there are parties who do not accept it and are ready to go down to the streets. Therefore, in this room (Cikeas), I invited the two of them Jokowi-Jusuf Kalla, then I invited Mr. Prabowo and Mr. Hatta Rajasa also in the middle of the night," said SBY as quoted by CNN Indonesia, August 29, 2014.

The narrative that occurred in the 2014 presidential election is embedded in the memories of many people. Musician Ahmad Dhani even spoke up on March 30, 2016. Dhani predicted that the conditions of the 2017 DKI Jakarta Regional Election would be similar to the 2014 presidential election.

This condition is because Ahok is ready to step down as the Governor in the DKI Jakarta Regional Election. Dhani sees that political contestation is nothing more than a reflection of the 2014 Regional Election. That is, the camp that used to choose Jokowi will certainly choose Ahok. The camp that used to choose Prabowo will choose Ahok's opponent.

This also applies to musicians who used to support Jokowi. Musicians are considered by Dhani to choose Jokowi. Dhani also said that if the musician is aware, he can only choose another candidate. This means that the hot tension of the 2014 presidential election is considered by Dhani to be carried over into the 2017 DKI Jakarta Regional Election.

"The arena (presidential election) 2014 is repeated again (in the 2017 DKI Regional Election). Whoever chooses Jokowi and still has not realized it will continue to choose Ahok (the incumbent candidate, Governor of DKI Jakarta), and (supporters) who have realized it will choose candidates other than Ahok. "

"Yes, they are indeed supporting Jokowi from the beginning. Musicians who do not support or repent supporting Jokowi, he will support other candidates besides Ahok," said Dhani as quoted by lamankompas.com, March 30, 2016.
