After The Fourth Debate, Cak Imin Collects Videotron Like Anies

Vice Presidential Candidate Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin was held in a vice presidential debate, Sunday, January 21 (ANTARA)

JAKARTA - Candidate for vice president number 1, Muhaimin Iskandar, asked for a videotron to show himself, after the fourth debate of the 2024 vice presidential candidate held by the Indonesian General Election Commission (KPU) on Sunday, January 21 evening.

This request was conveyed by Cak Imin through his personal X (Twitter) account. Cak Imin feels he deserves a videotron prize like his presidential candidate, Anies Baswedan.

"Videotron," he wrote on the @cakimiNow account, accompanied by black-glassed face emoticons, quoted Monday, January 22.

The account X @olpproject, an account supporting Anies who also initiated the installation of Anies videotrons in various regions, immediately replied to Cak Imin's tweet. They said the making of videotrons for display was in process.

"On progress," replied the account @olpproject.

Before the fourth debate took place, supporters on social media hoped that Cak Imin would excel in the debate, unlike in the second debate some time ago. In fact, netizens made a narrative as if they were going to kidnap Cak Imin to Rengasdengklok if he looked bad at the debate.

On the other hand, if Cak Imin's performance increases in debate, Anies' affiliated supporters in the X @aniesbubble account promise to make a Korean oppa-style videotron. This promise was collected by Cak Imin.

In yesterday's debate, the arguments expressed by Cak Imin often offended the government. In fact, in the first segment, namely exposure to vision and mission and programs, Cak Imin immediately criticized the food estate project run by Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto, who is also the presidential candidate number 2 and is paired with Gibran Rakabuming Raka.

Cak Imin also continues to criticize Jokowi's program such as downstreaming whose project will be continued by Prabowo-Gibran.

Receiving an attack targeting Jokowi and Prabowo, Gibran replied to Cak Imin sarcastically. This satire was conveyed after Cak Imin answered a question prepared by a panelist about steps to overcome food problems due to extreme climate change.

Initially, Cak Imin answered a question that had been prepared by a panelist. After answering, Gibran was given the opportunity to respond to Cak Imin's answer. That's when Gibran quipped the Chairman of the PKB.

"It's really nice, Gus," he answered while reading the notes earlier, "said Gibran in the fourth debate at the Jakarta Convention Center, Sunday, January 21.

Responding to this, Cak Imin conveyed that the most important thing was not from the records of the Constitutional Court (MK).

"What is important is not the record of the Constitutional Court," said Cak Imin.

This clearly insinuated Gibran for the case of ethical violation of Constitutional Justices because of the decision on the age limit of the presidential and vice-presidential candidates. The verdict that opened the door for Gibran to run as a vice presidential candidate resulted in his uncle, Anwar Usman, being dismissed from the position of Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court.

After the fourth debate, Anies immediately hugged Cak Imin as an expression of congratulations. Not a few netizens on social media appreciated Cak Imin's appearance in the fourth debate.
