JAKARTA - At a time when tensions over the presidential election began to warm, the Jakarta Nadhlatul Ulama Regional Management (PWNU) threw a winged statement. Through its chairman, Samsul Ma'arif, PWNU DKI praised Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan as Indonesia's future leader.
The statement was even delivered directly at Anies' office, DKI City Hall. Coincidentally, they were indeed there to ask permission from Anies to attend the NU Congress in the next few days.
"I thank the Governor of DKI Jakarta, the future leader of Indonesia," said Samsul Ma'arif at DKI City Hall, Central Jakarta, Monday, December 20.
Samsul's remarks raises the assumption that he thinks Anies will run for the presidential election in the future. However, when asked to clarify the meaning of the words "future Indonesian leader" was the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Samsul argued that he was not in that direction.
