JAKARTA - The candidate for governor of Jakarta, Ridwan Kamil, revealed his conversation with Joko Widodo (Jokowi). The 7th Indonesian president was said to have asked him to continue greeting residents.

The two are known to have met at the inauguration ceremony and inauguration of the Putra Jawa Natal Sumatra (Pujakesuma) DPW Jakarta group at TMII, East Jakarta.

"Yes, conveying support, prayers, as is clear in Cempaka Putih, encouraging, that we continue to greet residents," Ridwan Kamil told reporters, Wednesday, November 20.

According to him, Jokowi's support will have a major impact on his electability in the contestation of the Regional Head Election or the Jakarta Regional Head Election.

So, with this support, it is hoped that the Ridwan Kamil-Suswono pair can be elected as Governor and Deputy Governor.

"This figure has an influence, hopefully if the character supports it, his admirer followers will also support it," he said.

On the other hand, Ridwan Kamil also mentioned the support from Effendy Simbolon. According to him, it will have a tremendous effect.

"Pak Effendi held an event of 7000 Batak people throughout Jakarta, if they don't have strong influence, it's impossible for the Batak people throughout Jakarta who are represented by 7000s throughout Jakarta to be crowded to be present at the velodrome, right, that's it, so it's amazing," said Ridwan Kamil.

It is known that Ridwan Kamil also met with Jokowi in Cempaka Putih, on Monday, November 18.
