JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of the Golkar Party, Ahmad Doli Kurnia, responded to the survey results released by the Politica Research & Consulting (PRC) institution with the Indonesian Political Parameter (PPI).
The survey showed the electability of General Chair Airlangga Hartarto was only 0.8 percent in a simulation of 15 names of presidential candidates.
Doli is optimistic that the general chairman's electability will continue to increase ahead of the 2024 presidential election. According to him, Golkar still has two years to carry out political work to boost Airlangga's electability.
"We still have two years, of course we have to be consistent with our decisions. We have to work more seriously," said Doli in the online release of the National Political Outlook Survey: Observing the Axis of the Party Coalition, Monday, December 27.
The chairman of Commission II of the DPR said that Golkar had its own mechanism to evaluate Airlangga's electability as a comparison from the survey results of a number of institutions which showed the electability of his chairman was still low.
Doli is reluctant to speculate about the possibility of Golkar carrying another candidate, if Airlangga's electability does not increase until 2024.
"What is clear today is that we have decided that we have a presidential candidate, and that is what all party ranks are currently working on," concluded Doli.
