JAKARTA - Member of the Expert Council of the Prabowo-Gibran National Campaign Team (TKN), Budiman Sudjatmiko, confirmed that the candidate for vice president number 2 Gibran Rakabuming Raka controlled the substance of the cawapres debate theme. The agrarian reform business has been boosted by his assistance to Gibran.

"We (TKN) have prepared the ingredients, we have conveyed them. Maybe, Friday (19/1), we will have another meeting for the finishing touch," Budiman said after the AIPI KIPD DISCUSSION regarding Climate Change and the Fair Energy Transition in Jakarta, reported by ANTARA, Thursday, January 18.

Budiman revealed that the TKN Expert Council Prabowo-Gibran divided the two preparations for the presidential debate, namely related to the substance and delivery.

Specifically for the substance problem, Budiman said that some of the themes of the Fourth Debate of the Vice Presidential Election 2024, which discussed natural resources (SDA), indigenous peoples, the environment, energy, and agrarian, had been quite controlled by Gibran.

"Some things related to equality, Mas Gibran is already experienced. When it comes to renewable energy, Mas Gibran also has experience with practice in the field, in the city of Surakarta," said Budiman.

However, he acknowledged that the Prabowo-Gibrakan TKN Expert Council Team emphasized assistance related to agrarian reform issues, indigenous peoples, and villages.

He explained that the TKN Expert Council Prabowo-Gibran provided special assistance regarding issues that were controlled or not controlled by the candidate pair number 2.

"Some new themes, for example about villages,nah, Mas Gibrankan, the experience is the city. Regarding agrarian reform and indigenous peoples, it is not in the city area. We are intensively providing assistance about that," he explained.

Budiman ensured that all issues that will be discussed in the upcoming debate will be studied by Prabowo and Gibran. However, he stressed that during the debate later, the stage situation will be entirely in the hands of the presidential or vice presidential candidates who argue.

"Cawapres is not our task. The task of the vice presidential candidate is that he determines in the field, on stage, what the situation is. What we provide as the Expert Council is the position and substance, the attitude of our vice presidential candidate position," said Budiman.

The Fourth Debate of Vice Presidential Election 2024 will be held at JCC Senayan, Jakarta, Sunday (22/1), with the theme related to natural resources, indigenous peoples, the environment, energy, and agrarian.
