JAKARTA - Jakarta Deputy Governor Rano Karno's Candidate insinuated Ridwan Kamil about his seriousness in running for the 2024 Regional Head Election (Pilkada) contestation. The satire was filed because it was believed that Ridwan Kamil or who is often called Kang Emil would prefer to run again as Governor of West Java. "If we want to ask, actually he wants to be here (Jakarta) or do you want to be elsewhere? Come on, I want to ask. Where does he want him? Where does he want to go? He wants to be in Jakarta or in Bandung?" said Rano Karno during consolidation with a number of volunteer nodes, at Warung Garasi Si Doel, Lebak Bulus, South Jakarta, Friday, September 6. In fact, Rano assessed that Ridwan Kamil did not use his heart when he decided to run as a contestant in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. However, it was more due to an order. "Actually he wants to be sono. Why is he here now? Asked to be here. Now if he is here, not with his heart," he said. Nevertheless, Rano Karno emphasized that his statement did not intend to dwarf Ridwan Kamil. "I have to if it's not a fight, don't worry about vilifying people. Yes. We don't say we are Betawi natives, he's an immigrant, no," said Rano Karno. Previously, Ridwan Kamil revealed one of the reasons for advancing in the Jakarta Pilkada contestation, namely directions and requests from the elected party and President Prabowo Subianto. This is because the technocrat figure is needed to build Jakarta as a 'globar' after the status of the nation's capital to visit the capital city of the archipelago (IKN).

"But orders from the party, directions from Pak Prabowo, Jakarta need technocrats who can think about what, after they are no longer the capital," said Ridwan Kamil.
