JAKARTA - The presidential candidate from the Indonesia Maju Coalition, Prabowo Subianto, stated that he did not want to be reckless and rushed to declare a candidate for vice president who would accompany him in the 2024 presidential election.

"Just talk. Don't be in a hurry, ojo grusa-grusu (don't be careless)," Prabowo told reporters after his 72nd birthday celebration at Kertanegara House, Jakarta, Tuesday, October 17.

Prabowo asked all parties to calmly wait for the right time because Indonesia is a democratic country.

When asked about the truth about the figure of the vice presidential candidate having narrowed to one name, namely Solo Mayor Gibran Rakabuming, the General Chairperson of the Gerindra Party DPP was reluctant to answer.

"The name is democracy, yes," said Prabowo.

Previously, on the same occasion, Secretary General of the Gerindra Party DPP Ahmad Muzani said that Prabowo Subianto's declaration of vice presidential candidate would be carried out after the general chairman of the political party of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) was complete in Jakarta.

"Now that the positions of the chairman of KIM's party are still overseas following Pak Jokowi's journey. God willing, after all the ketums are in Jakarta, we will immediately hold a KIM meeting to discuss the Prabowo Subianto pair," he said.
