JAKARTA - Candidate for Governor-Deputy Governor of Jakarta number 3 Pramono Anung-Rano Karno received support from 7 political party cadres who are members of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) Plus. The seven politicians visited the residence to hold a closed meeting at Pramono's residence on Thursday, October 31 morning.

They are Muhammad Ishaq (PPP Party), HM Nafiudin (NasDem Party), Ahmad Faisal (PSI Party), Firman Abdul Hakim (PPP Party), Riko (PAN Party), Ahmad Syukri (PKB), Redim Okto Fudin (PKB Party). All of them are former candidates for the Jakarta DPRD legislature.

PKB politician Ahmad Syukri revealed the reason his party did not support the cagub-cawagub pair according to the coalition of political parties. He admitted that the constituents asked him to side with Pramono-Rano.

"We are continuing the aspirations that in the Legislative Election yesterday chose us. That most of them left their voice mandates to help win Pak Pram and Mas Doel," said Syukri at Pramono's residence, Cipete, South Jakarta, Thursday, October 31.

Syukri acknowledged that his attitude and the six other KIM Plus political party cadres in supporting Pramono-Rano were not at the direction of their respective parties. In fact, they have not even informed their party about the provision of support.

On the one hand, Syukri also knew that they would receive sanctions from their respective parties for their support for the opposing candidate pairs in their coalition.

"Look, if every decision is there must be a pros and cons. If there are sanctions, I think there will be. It's just that later we will definitely be called and we will give an explanation. I don't think so," explained Syukri.

After this support, the seven members of the KIM Plus political party will campaign to meet the residents to help win Pramono-Rano. "Later it will go down for sure. Yes, how about looking for votes to become winners? That's the principle," he added.
