Nevertheless, Jokowi said that the relationship between himself and the General Chair of the Gerinda Party was still well established.
Previously, Jokowi thought that the President's decision regarding amnesty and abolitions was common. Because it has complied with the laws and prerogatives of the head of state.
"That is a prerogative, it is a presidential privilege granted by our basic law and we respect it," Jokowi explained.
