Akhyar Nasution Receives Support From The Labor Union In The Medan Pilkada, Gives A Message About TPS

Candidate for Mayor of Medan Akhyar Nasution meets workers

MEDAN - The candidate for Mayor of Medan Akhyar Nasution received support from the labor union. After the Indonesian Independent Workers Union (SBMI), now it is the turn of the Medan Confederation of All Indonesian Workers Unions (KSPSI) to express their support for Akhyar-Salman Alfarisi in the Medan Pilkada.

This support was immediately conveyed by the Chairman of the SPSI Medan Confederation, Jahotman Sitanggang to Akhyar Nasution. Before expressing support, the KSPSI first held a meeting to determine the support of the candidates for mayor and deputy mayor of Medan.

Those who were spoken to included groups of workers for Tobacco Cigarettes, Food and Beverage (RTMM), Electronic Metals and Machines (LEM), Kimian Energy and Mining (KEP) and the Indonesian Transportation Workers Union (SPTI). The result was that the workers voted for candidate pair number 1, Akhyar-Salman.

"So this is not the personal voice of the chairmen, but we take it from the voices of fellow workers at K-SPSI. That's why we convey today's support to Pak Akhyar and Pak Salman. Hopefully this support will add to your encouragement in winning the contest for the Medan Mayor Election on December 9, 2020, "Jahotman said as quoted from a written statement, Monday, October 19.

Jahotman said that this support had nothing to do with the Omnibus Law on the Job Creation Law. But it is called the pure voice of the workers' group.

"Hopefully this support will strengthen our position in winning the Medan Pilwakot on December 9, 2020," said Akhyar in response to the support received.

Akhyar asked the labor group to continue to remind the mandate that had been conveyed. Akhyar called this reminder as the character of Anak Medan.

In addition, Akhyar hopes the Medan City SPSI Confederation will remind workers groups to come to the polling stations to vote on December 9, 2020. By coming and voting number 1, Akhyar calls it a valuable aid.

"Come to the polling stations, because one vote to cast one vote is an honor that we receive from the citizens of Medan. God willing, Akhyar-Salman will maintain the trust of Medan City residents, ”said Akhyar.
