"This is good, Kang Emil has set an example that after all political struggles must go through political parties", said Bima to journalists, Wednesday, January 18.

According to the Mayor of Bogor, Ridwan Kamil's decision to join the Banyan party was a brave step. RK or Kang Emil, he said, must have taken various things into account.

"It's a bold move, perhaps ominous, and meets everyone's expectations", said Bima.

Bima also said he was ready to work with Ridwan Kamil, not only in the United Indonesia Coalition (KIB) but wherever the former mayor of Bandung served.

"Not only in KIB, but they are also very ready to form a coalition anywhere for the best service", said Bima.
