JAKARTA - Member of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Hardiyanto Kenneth, views that the actions of the future presidential candidate from his party, Ganjar Pranowo, who called the Acting Governor of DKI Heru Budi Hartono after receiving complaints from residents, do not need to be questioned.

In fact, according to Kenneth, the Central Java Governor's attention to the Jakarta issue needs to be appreciated. Because not all public complaints can be immediately accommodated by the local government.

"I don't think there is a problem. That's communication. He's helping us. Instead, we have to thank Pak Ganjar. Right, not everything we know the details," said Kenneth at the DKI Jakarta DPRD building, Monday, June 26.

Moreover, Kenneth is of the view that Ganjar has the right to accept residents' complaints and convey them to fellow regional heads, as long as they can be responded to, especially by the DKI Provincial Government in this matter.

Ganjar is also a candidate for the 2024 presidential election who usually visits the community to accommodate aspirations.

"He is a presidential candidate, there are other people who complain, he has to provide a solution. Incidentally he has a connection. This is a matter of desire and luck in my opinion," explained Kenneth.

"If we really have a big spirit, we both want to work together to build Jakarta, the views and thoughts should not be negative, please," he added.

On Saturday, June 24, Ganjar visited Warakas Market and Anyar Bahari Market and received complaints from market traders.

To Ganjar, traders complained about the large monthly market retribution costs and the lack of buyers who came to the market because of the massive online buying and selling platform.

The residents' complaints were submitted by Ganjar by telephone to Heru Budi's cellphone number. However, at that time Heru did not respond much to Ganjar's call because he was attending a wedding.

Ganjar then called the Regional Secretary of DKI Joko Agus Setyono to submit the same complaint. During the conversation, Joko invited the market coordinator to meet him to discuss their complaints.
