Jokowi And Anies Review Formula E Circuit, Gerindra: The President Wants This International Event To Run Well

JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo's review of the Formula E Circuit in Ancol, North Jakarta, accompanied by Governor Anies Baswedan, has attracted public attention. The reason is that so far the race has received negative attention, especially from political parties that support Jokowi.

However, the Jokowi-Anies review was considered reasonable by the Daily Chair of the Gerindra Party DPP Sufmi Dasco Ahmad. According to him, Formula E is an international event held in Jakarta.

"I think Formula E is an international event. Mr. President in carrying out the review is of course natural," said Dasco at the House of Representatives (DPR) building, Senayan, Jakarta, Tuesday, April 26.

Therefore, continued Dasco, the government needs to ensure the event runs smoothly.

"Surely the president wants that this international event can run well and Indonesia can be a good host," he said.

Regarding the speculation about Jokowi and Anies' closeness to support the 2024 election, Dasco also considers it reasonable.

However, the Deputy Speaker of the DPR assessed that Jokowi as the head of state only came to support and ensure that the Formula E event went well.

"This is being held in Indonesia as the host, of course, as President, Mr. Jokowi wants this event to run smoothly and successfully," he concluded.
