GIANYAR - Head of the Bali Province Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP), Nyoman Rai Dharmadi explained the lifting of the PDIP flag and Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud MD billboards according to orders from the Acting Governor of Bali Sang Made Mahendra Jaya.
Dharmadi said that the lifting of the political party's flag was indeed carried out at three Working Visits (Kunker) or President Jokowi's activities in Gianyar Regency as well as in the Denpasar City area, Bali.
"In accordance with the orders of the Acting Governor. To be sure, I was asked to revoke the attributes of political parties at the event location," said Dharmadi, Tuesday, October 31.
Not only the flags of the PDIP Party and the billboards of the presidential and vice-presidential candidates Ganjar Pranowo and Mahfud MD were revoked, but other billboards from political parties were also revoked.
Such as the billboards of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) which featured the face of PSI Chairman Kaesang Pangarep and also PSI billboards which also contained pictures of President Jokowi.
"Don't think it's the PDI flag, Ganjar-Mahfud MD, it has nothing to do with it, it has nothing to do with it. (Revocation) is to build a neutral atmosphere, that's actually. That, maybe in my opinion, is because it's also true so as not to seem on the side of one (candidate)," he said.
"Including several points in Renon (Denpasar City), in Bendega there is a (photo) Kaesang, we will also revoke it. Including billboards with pictures of Mr. Jokowi who is on PSI billboards, we revoke it, it doesn't matter. That's the order, we do it according to what was conveyed to us," he said.
Kasatpol PP in the interview reiterated orders regarding the revocation of billboards and the PDIP flag came from the Acting Governor of Bali.
"What is certain is that according to the direction of the last Acting Governor, we received it at around half past nine, we will follow up immediately. There are three locations, we are neutral with regard to the party's attributes, we will temporarily revoke them," he said.
