PDIP: Winning Dilan In The Makassar Pilkada Is A Dead Price

Candidate for Mayor of Makassar Syamsu Rizal (Deng Ical)

MAKASSAR - PDI Perjuangan South Sulawesi (Sulsel) focuses on facing 12 regional elections in the South Sulawesi region with Makassar City being the top priority. PDIP is determined to win candidate pair number three, Syamsu Rizal-Fadli Ananda (Dilan).

Chairman of the PDIP of South Sulawesi, Andi Ridwan Wittiri (ARW), said that Dilan's victory at the 2020 Makassar Pilwalkot was a fixed price considering that Fadli Ananda is a PDIP cadre and administrator. Therefore, all party elements must win Dilan.

"The party's orders are clear and firm, all cadres and potentials must move to win the stretchers. In Makassar City, we have to support and win DILAN, that's a fixed price," said ARW who is also a member of the DPR, Thursday, October 22.

In order to realize the target of victory, he instructed all cadres to fight to win Dilan. He admitted that the competition in the Makassar Pilkada was very tight, but hard work was believed to be able to win Dilan over.

One of the PDIP efforts to boost the winning engine of Dilan and stretchers in 11 areas within South Sulawesi is by holding a campaign manager training at the Hotel Colonial Makassar, Sunday, October 18.

Meanwhile, Secretary of the DPD PDI Perjuangan Sulsel, Rudy Pieter Goni, revealed that his party gathered the 12 regional DPC administrators in order to increase the electability of the nominated candidates.

Rudy said the PDIP has prepared a cadre of fighters to win its stretchers, including Dilan in Makassar. This cadre of fighters includes a number of council members at the central, provincial and city levels. They have the advantage because they already have constituents, aka mass bases, to develop.

"So all members of the DPRD, be it city, provincial or DPR RI, will assign tasks to their respective places," he said.
