JAKARTA - The Aksara Research and Consuling Survey Institute released a recent survey of potential pairs for the 2024 Central Java gubernatorial election. The name of Solo Mayor Gibran Rakabuming Raka when juxtaposed with Kendal Regent Dico Ganinduto ranks at the top.
Gibran chose not to comment much on the results of the survey. However, according to President Joko Widodo's eldest son, Dico, who has different political parties with him has a good personality.
"Yes, it doesn't matter. [Dico] is good. [the leadership] is good," said Gibran, quoted from the YouTube channel Beritas Surakarta, Thursday, February 9.
Gibran admitted that he had met with Dito several times. Apart from the Regional Head Coordination Meeting (Rakornas) and the Regional Leadership Communication Forum (Forkopimda) throughout Indonesia in 2023 which was held in Bogor, the two meetings also took place at a working meeting forum in Semarang.
"If you meet them often in Semarang. Talk a lot," he said.
Gibran did not close the door if paired with Dico or other popular names in the upcoming Central Java gubernatorial election. "Yes, it's okay. This is just a survey," he said.
However, Gibran considers that it does not need to be discussed in the near future. Because according to him, the implementation of the Central Java gubernatorial election will only be held in 2024.
"I'm easy, people are easy, 2024 is still long. Yes, just wait," said Gibran.
Separately, Dico, who responded to the survey, admitted that he was open to all possibilities. He kept two of the most important things related to the right person to be paired in the Central Java Pilgub.
"First, orders or recommendations from each party, that is also the most important factor. Second, what kind of public acceptance is. So if those two things show a good direction, I as a politician is very dynamic," said Dico.
