The Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Kaesang Pangarep emphasized that his party would uphold it to support the elected presidential and vice presidential candidates, Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka.

Kaesang said that so far PSI has always supported President Joko Widodo. After the inauguration of the elected president and vice president, PSI will support Prabowo.

"PSI is perpendicular to President Jokowi. After October 20, we are perpendicular to Prabowo Subianto," he said during an event at the PSI DPD, Brebes Regency.

Kaesang also reminded PSI cadres to continue supporting Prabowo-Gibran as a continuation of the Jokowi administration.

Meanwhile, President Jokowi stated that he would immediately return to Solo after the inauguration of Prabowo-Gibran. Jokowi admitted that he did not have another agenda after the inauguration and planned to rest in Solo.

"On October 20, 2024 afternoon, I will return to Solo," said Jokowi after opening the BNI Investor Daily Summit 2024 on Tuesday which took place at JCC Senayan, Jakarta.

Jokowi admitted that the transition process from himself to the elected president Prabowo Subianto went smoothly. Thus, it is hoped that Prabowo will immediately work from the first day he was sworn in as the 8th president of the Republic of Indonesia.

"I am sure that this transition to government will run smoothly, God willing. So, once inaugurated, the president and his cabinet must be able to immediately work and run programs without pause," said Jokowi.
