JAKARTA - The elected President for the 2024-2029 period, Prabowo Subianto, appealed to voters, supporters or Prabowo-Gibran volunteers not to take mass action at the Constitutional Court (MK) building. Prabowo appealed to all to prioritize the integrity and integrity of the Indonesian nation.

"I Prabowo Subianto sincerely ask the Indonesian people, especially the 96.2 million Indonesian people who have chosen the Prabowo-Gibran pair, not to take any action in front of the Constitutional Court building or in other places in order to maintain the coolness of democracy, maintain the unity and integrity of the nation," Prabowo said in his statement, Friday, April 19. Originally, the volunteers, voters and supporters of Prabowo-Gibran would hold a peaceful demonstration in front of the Constitutional Court building today starting at 14.00 WIB. This peaceful action was held in response to various accusations of humiliation, harassment, which was directed at voters of the Prabowo-Gibran pair as if 96.2 million people had exercised their voting rights to choose pair number 2 because they were bribed with social assistance (bansos). Prabowo said he understood the accusations made by other parties. However, he appealed to all his supporters to remain cool and peaceful.

"We understand that Prabowo-Gibran supporters are really very disturbed and have quite a touching reaction, but we ask the supporters of the Prabowo-Gibran pair who have used their voting rights to always be vigilant and always careful and not provoked, especially those who cause an uncool and unpeaceful atmosphere," said the chairman of the Gerindra Party.

With the act of refraining from being reactive, according to Prabowo, it does not mean that the attitude of volunteers, supporters, and weak voters. Instead, put forward the interests of the people and the nation to maintain the unity and integrity of Indonesia.

"I reiterated that let us be calm, cool, restrained, invite institutions to invite the judges of the Constitutional Court to carry out their noble duties with wisdom by always prioritizing the interests of the Indonesian nation and people for the sake of our beloved Indonesian nation," concluded Prabowo.
