JAKARTA - General Treasurer of NasDem Ahmad Sahroni said defeating former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil in the Jakarta gubernatorial election was very easy. Famously alone is not enough as capital to advance because residents have different characteristics.
This was conveyed by Sahroni during a consolidation event for the structure of the NasDem Party in the context of evaluating the 2024 General Election and strengthening the preparation structure for the Jakarta Regional Head Election, Sunday, June 23. He said Jakarta residents had a more modern mind.
"That's why I once said that against Ridwan Kamil it was very easy. It was very easy. Why? Because Jakarta is different. All people are modern. And not people like other areas," said Sahroni of the NasDem State Defense Academy, Jakarta.
Sahroni also said that Jakarta residents were more complex because of the many problems they faced. The capital of money and being famous is not enough based on his experience as a candidate for the DPR RI for the Jakarta III electoral district.
"So it's not just that he's famous, but he's at authentic voters," he said.
"Only the DPR has not received it because Jakarta is not easy. Having money is not necessarily finished. Moreover, it doesn't have money. It's not getting worse. And this is the rhetoric of Jakarta," continued the deputy chairman of Commission III of the DPR RI.
As previously reported, the Chairman of the NasDem Jakarta DPW, Wibi Andrino, revealed that there were three names proposed as Jakarta governors to the Chairman of Bappilu NasDem Prananda Surya Paloh. Their names are Anies Baswedan, Ahmad Sahroni, and himself.
"The NasDem Party yesterday on June 5, DKI Jakarta DPW has provided recommendations. Recommendations to Bappilu. There are three names. The first is our former governor, our former governor Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan. Second, Mr. Ahmad Sahroni. The third is me," Wibi said in a speech at the NasDem State Defense Academy, Jakarta, Sunday, June 23.

Wibi said he was not interested in running for the Jakarta gubernatorial election because he wanted to lead the Jakarta DPRD. However, he hopes Sahroni will nominate himself. "For me, in my small heart, I pray and hope that Bang Ahmad Saroni will come forward," he said.
"But how can you believe that he is a tough one. I ask for help from all of you later when he is present, please help push. Push, you know, not boost (drive until he falls). Driven, "concluded Wibi.
