JAKARTA - Jakarta Governor Ridwan Kamil's candidate for support for Persija by watching the match against Madura United on Wednesday, November 6.

Ridwan Kamil's action was also in the spotlight on social media. Moreover, when celebrating a goal scored by a Persija player.

Responding to this, Ridwan Kamil stated that the video of himself celebrating Persija's goal was recorded by other viewers.

"Indeed, I watched the (Persija vs Madura United match), recorded by the people who watched it too," said Ridwan Kamil, Friday, November 8.

The man who is often called Kang Emil will also pay attention to the home base or Persija home.

It is known, Persija is still competing outside Jakarta despite playing at home against the club from East Java. The football club from Jakarta uses Pakansari Stadium in Bogor, West Java as a home.

"My prayer is that Persija has a home base in Jakarta too. The home match must be at JIS," he said

Therefore, if Ridwan Kamil-Suswono (RIDO) wins the Jakarta regional election, Ridwan Kamil ensures that Persija will compete in Jakarta, especially at JIS. In the next five years of his leadership, Ridwan Kamil wants JIS to be used to prioritize its development goals, namely as a place to hold football matches.

We will prioritize the construction concept of Jakarta with justice. JIS will be prioritized for football. What is mandatory (ball football) must come first," said Ridwan Kamil.
