JAKARTA - The Presidential Candidate (Readpres) Ganjar Pranowo attended the commemoration of the 25th Anniversary of the Indonesian Chinese Marga Social Association (PSMTI). The event was held at the Sasono Langen Budoyo Building, Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII), East Jakarta, Monday 2 October.

When he arrived at the location, Ganjar, who was wearing a brown batik shirt, was immediately greeted by the General Chairperson of the Central PSMTI, Wilianto Tanta. When walking to the stage, Ganjar received a lively welcome from the participants.

"Long live Mas Ganjar," said the participant.

The two-term Governor of Central Java also received a symbolic traditional cake celebrating Chinese's birthday from the General Chairperson of PSMTI Pusat Wilianto.

In his remarks, Ganjar congratulated PSMTI for the 25th birthday. According to him, getting to age is not something that is easy for an organization.

"I want to wish you a happy 25th birthday. A short time for an organization," said Ganjar.

Ganjar also appreciated what PSMTI had done for the people of Indonesia. He said PSMTI's age of 25 years is not something short for an organization.

"Imagine not when we care for organizations and work for the community, then at that time what we can feel is people who gather for the common good," said Ganjar.

Reflecting on what PSMTI has done, Ganjar invites other community organizations to collaborate with all elements of the nation's children to advance the Indonesian nation.

"We strengthen these community organizations, we collaborate with the nation's children to contribute to Indonesia's development and progress," Ganjar appealed.

However, said Ganjar, in building the Indonesian nation, it is not only collaborating, but also maintaining harmony without distinguishing ethnicity, religion and race.

"Let's maintain harmony by moderating, so that we don't then distinguish each other, whether it's because of the ethnicity, religion, race, group. So that we both feel like the Indonesian people. That's the most important thing for now we encourage," Ganjar appealed.

In addition, Ganjar also expressed the steps that must be taken if he wanted to make Indonesia a big country.

Starting from holding hands with each other to make a contribution to goodness, then the obligatory thing is to stick to Pancasila and Bhineka Tunggal Ika.

"Of course, we will realize this country's big dream with a very strong basis. Pancasila and Bhineka Tunggal Ika," he said.

For your information, apart from Ganjar, several other national figures were present. Such as PSI Chairman Kaesang Pangarep and his wife, Erina Gudono, Deputy Chair of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Board of Trustees, Grace Natalie, to the Presidential Chief of Staff of the Republic of Indonesia, Moeldoko.
