"I am happy, both Aisyiyah and Muhammadiyah, all attention to the condition of the last nation, the condition of the latest nation," said Ganjar.

Muhammadiyah's struggle, he continued, was very intense in improving the world of education and providing health services for the community. In addition, Asyiyah also plays a role in empowering women.

Everyone has a message ahead of the political year. Give a good example. The elites gave a good role model. So, give stories of political communication wherever the media is good too. Wow, this is really cool," he said.

The white-haired politician prayed that this year's Muhammadiyah and Aisyiyah Congress would be able to produce recommendations, to solve the nation's current latest problems.

"Hopefully in three days there will be recommendations for the latest issues today, which come out of Muhammadiyah's thoughts," he hoped.
