YOGYAKARTA - Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo admitted that he did not want to "gede rasa" (GR) or speculate with the intention of President Joko Widodo's direction to the Projo volunteer organization.

"Yes, as the governor (at that time) accompanied (President Jokowi), 'ojo GR-an' (don't feel big)," said Ganjar as quoted by Antara, Monday, May 23.

Previously, at the V Projo National Work Meeting in Magelang, Saturday (21/5) which was attended by the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo, Indonesian President Joko Widodo advised the Projo volunteers not to be in a hurry to talk politics about presidential candidates in the 2024 election.

"Focus on solving existing problems first, if you drink milk, don't be in a hurry, even though maybe the one we support is here," said the President.

When asked whether Jokowi's statement regarding support was directed at him, Ganjar was reluctant to assume because at that time many people were present, not only himself as the Governor of Central Java.

"Who said (the support for Ganjar), there were a lot of people (people). I was there yesterday because of my function as governor, there was a visiting president, so I just came," said Ganjar.

However, he took President Jokowi's message to Projo volunteers that there is no need to rush into talking about politics about presidential candidates in the 2024 election.

"Ojo kesusu means don't go too fast if the road gets hit," said Ganjar.
