SOLO - Chairman of the Golkar Party Airlangga Hartarto said that there are still many forums for Gibran Rakabuming Raka to show his ability as a vice presidential candidate.

"The election is still long, still in February. There are still many forums," he said in Solo, Central Java, as reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, December 5.

This was conveyed when responding to Gibran, who in one of his speeches made the wrong mention of folic acid as sulfic acid.

"Of course a lot of things will be discussed, so take it easy," he said.

Including regarding public debate regarding changes to the debate of presidential and vice presidential candidates, according to him, it should still be carried out according to procedures.

"Just normal debate, just do it," he said.

Previously, the KPU emphasized that the implementation of the debate on presidential and vice presidential candidates was carried out by referring to the Election Law.

The 2024 presidential election debate was carried out three times for presidential candidates and twice for vice presidential candidates. KPU member Idham Holik said he would convey to the campaign team to present all candidate pairs in every debate session.

Idham said this did not violate the law.
