JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Giring Ganesha has again rejected a liar leader who was sacked by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) to lead Indonesia in the coming period.

Previously, Giring had also mentioned liars. At that time, Giring immediately mentioned the name that meant the liar was Governor Anies Baswedan.

 

So, is Giring's accusation currently being directed at the same character?
 

Responding to Giring's statement, the NasDem Party also spoke up. NasDem assessed that Giring was looking for a stage because he wanted to become a presidential candidate in 2024.

 

"They are looking for a form, carrying out propaganda to hope that they can qualify for the 2024 election contestation," said NasDem Party deputy head, Ahmad Ali, to reporters, Wednesday, December 22.

 

"I think they really have to do something to find voters. Maybe the chairman is afraid to compete, the chairman wants to be a presidential candidate too, right," he continued. The chairman of the NasDem faction in the DPR considered that tendentious statements were inappropriate in politics. Moreover, said Ali, today's society is smart.

 

"NasDem is trying to educate the public so that the 2024 presidential election contestation is healthy," he said. Moreover, according to Ali, there are currently no figures who have clearly declared themselves as presidential candidates in 2024.

 

"Except for Giring who has stated that he wants to become a presidential candidate in 2024," he concluded.

 

Similarly, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) warned Giring because his accusations could backfire on himself and his party.

 

The chairman of the PKS DPP, Mardani Ali Sera, said whoever the accusation was, he still asked Giring to be careful. According to him, every accusation can turn to oneself.

"It's normal. Everyone has the right to have a voice. And Mas Anies just relax. Just respond with achievements and performance. My message is, be careful accusing people, later you can turn around," said Mardani to reporters, Wednesday, December 22.

Mardani said that it is better to fill the public space with competing works and ideas. Not slander.

"Plus we fill the public space with contestation of works and ideas. Do not accuse and slander," he said.

Previously, the chairman of PSI Giring Ganesha opened the peak event for his party's 7th anniversary. In his speech, Giring mentioned a figure who is not worthy to replace President Jokowi later.

"Progress will be threatened if in the future Mr. Jokowi is someone who has a track record of using SARA issues and justifies any means to win in the regional elections," said Giring, in his virtual speech, Wednesday, December 22.

Giring said Indonesia would be bleak if it was led by a liar. He gave a clue to the person in question, namely someone who was replaced in Jokowi's cabinet.

"Indonesia will be gloomy if those who are elected later are liars and have also been fired by Mr. Jokowi because they are incompetent at work," he said.
