JAKARTA - A group of people who declared themselves as Ganjar's Friends- from a number of provinces in Indonesia gave their support for the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo to run in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres).

This PDI-P politician was considered close to the people and polite, so this group finally gave his support.

"Mr. Ganjar's good looks, close to the people, simple and polite made friends want to form Ganjar's Friends," said the General Chair of Ganjar's Friends, Leni Handayani, in an online press conference, Sunday, August 21.

He and Ganjar's Friend from various provinces in the country also agreed to consider Ganjar worthy to replace President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) whose term of office will end in 2024.

Leni also considers that the ugliness of the reward has not been seen so far so there is no reason for them not to support it. "So far, there has been no visible flaw in the eyes of the public, both regarding the law and others. So when asked how much we believe, we certainly believe," he said.

Furthermore, he said that this support was not given carelessly because they had already monitored Ganjar's movements during his leadership in Central Java in these two periods.

"So because there are many friends who support us and we think they are worthy, we become Ganjar's Friend," said Leni.

He also said that the support from Ganjar's Friend from various provinces did not come from the grassroots of the PDI-P, which is the party Ganjar is under. So, if the party bearing the bull symbol carries another candidate, it will not affect their support.

"We are independent and have no relationship with his party. When, for example, PDIP carries Mrs. Puan (Puan Maharani, Chair of the PDIP DPP), it will not affect us. We will see how in the future Mr. Ganjar, we remain confident and support so that people know more who is the figure of Mr. Ganjar who deserves to receive the baton from Mr. Jokowi," he concluded.
