Anies As A Family To TPS Compactly Wearing White Clothes When Voting, This Is What It Means

Presidential candidate number 1, Anies Baswedan and his family wore white clothes with a combination of brown or black pants on their way to the polling station (TPS) to exercise their voting rights.

Anies explained the meaning of the color of the clothes he wore with his wife, namely Fery Farhati, her mother, Aliyah Rasyid Baswedan, her three children, Mutiara Annisa, Mikail Azizi, and Ismail Hakim, and her son-in-law Ali Saleh Alhurariby.

According to Anies, white clothes are a way to respect whoever you meet, in this case the polling group (KPPS) and the community.

"Well, this is wearing a white shirt like this. So this is one thing we want to convey. We want to respect what we met and the way we respect it by dress properly. This is our way of respecting it," said Anies at his residence, Lebak Bulus, South Jakarta, Wednesday, February 14.

Anies views how to dress the same way as writing a speech to be delivered to the public. For Anies, delivering a good speech is also a way of paying tribute.

"If we write modestly, it underestimates readers, as if readers don't need quality writing. When we make modest speeches, it's as if the audience doesn't need quality speeches. That's demeaning," explained Anies.

"We want to respect and wear it with respect, and simple white color, don't bother looking for color every day," he continued.

Anies and his family arrived at TPS 60 at around 08.20 WIB. TPS 60 is in the Lebak Bulus Reservoir area or about 200 meters from Anies' residence on Jalan Lebak Bulus Dalam II.

After using his voting rights, Anies plans to monitor the process of calculating quickly or quick count of the 2024 presidential election at the AMIN National Team Winning Headquarters, Jalan Diponegoro, Central Jakarta.
