MEDAN - The candidate for Medan Mayor, Bobby Nasution, said that Medan is far behind other areas. Bobby wants this condition to be improved if he wins the Medan Pilkada.

"Medan is the third-largest city in Indonesia but is still far behind other regions. Therefore, we ask for support," said Bobby in a written statement, Saturday, August 22.

This was conveyed by Bobby Nasution after receiving recommendations for the support of the Medan Pilkada from Gerindra. The son-in-law of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) promised to meet people often to ensure the right work program for Medan City residents.

"Yesterday, General Chairperson gave input on the people's economy. It was conveyed by Mr. Prabowo. It is our vision to make Medan Prosperous by making the MSME the main sector to revive the economy of Medan City," he said.

Gerindra's support recommendation for Bobby Nasution, paired with Aulia Rachman, was submitted by the Head of the Gerindra Medan DPC, Ihwan Ritonga. This recommendation was submitted at the Gerindra North Sumatra DPD office, Jalan DI Panjaitan, Medan, Saturday, August 22.

Ihwan Ritonga emphasized that he fully supports the Bobby-Aulia pair in the Medan Pilkada. Aulia, the candidate for deputy mayor, is a Gerindra cadre who is also a member of the Medan DPRD.

"Gerindra is a commando party. So, whatever the decision of the Gerindra Party chairman, we will obey," he said.

The deputy chairman of the Medan DPRD has also met Bobby Nasution some time ago. The two of them discussed the city of Medan.

"I've met Bobby 5 or 6 months ago. We had a lot of discussion about the city of Medan," he said.
