JAKARTA - Pro Jokowi Volunteers (Projo) talked about the support for the gubernatorial candidate to be promoted by the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM), Dedi Mulyadi in the 2024 West Java (Jabar) Pilkada.

The General Treasurer (Bendum) of Projo, Panel Barus said that his party's support for the former Regent of Purwakarta had reached 70 percent.

"70 percent of us go to Dedi Mulyadi, yes. Candidates supported by KIM, Golkar, Gerindra have gone to Dedi. (So) 70 percent of Projo must go there," said Panel to reporters at the Projo DPP office, South Jakarta, Friday, August 9.

Nevertheless, the Panel emphasized that support for Dedi Mulyadi in the West Java gubernatorial election still had to be discussed further internally in Projo.

"It's just a discussion that needs to be intensified," he said.

The panel said West Java was one of 11 strategic areas guarded by Projo. "And we will move to secure the decision," he concluded.

Previously, the General Chair of the Golkar Party, Airlangga Hartarto, stated that he would support Gerindra Party politician Dedi Mulyadi to run in the 2024 West Java (Jabar) Pilgub.

"Earlier, there was a meeting in West Java between the Golkar Party, the Golkar Party DPD, and also the Gerindra DPD, then there was also a meeting between the Candidate for Governor of West Java, Dedi Mulyadi, and the Golkar management, including the Deputy Chairman of Mr. Ade Ginanjar, so the conversation has arrived there," said Airlangga in Central Jakarta, Friday, August 2.

Meanwhile, Golkar will carry Ridwan Kamil forward in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. "Yes, it's clear that West Java is like that (driving Dedi Mulyadi), it means who is Jakarta. Still asking, especially since KIM plus Jakarta," he said.
