JAKARTA - The NasDem Party responded to the question of President Joko Widodo who was said to have signaled support for the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo as a presidential candidate (candidate) in 2024 during the Projo National Work Meeting in Magelang, Central Java.

According to the Secretary of the House of Representatives' NasDem Faction, Saan Mustopa, Jokowi did not give any signal to support Ganjar. However, he said, Ganjar just happened to be present because the Projo event was held in Central Java.

"I think it's just a matter of protocol. Pak Jokowi comes to Central Java, yes, the Governor of Central Java as protocol must accompany him," said Saan at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Tuesday, May 24.

Regarding the interpretation that Jokowi dropped his support for Ganjar because he had said 'we support him here', Saan was reluctant to comment further.

"I don't know. I see it from a protocol point of view," he said.

Meanwhile, regarding party support, Saan said that NasDem had not yet discussed the candidate for the president who would be promoted. He said it would be discussed at the next National Working Meeting.

"I don't know who will appear as candidates who will appear at the National Working Meeting to be proposed to the general chairman," he concluded.

It is known, in his mandate to the Projo National Working Meeting, Jokowi advised not to be hasty in making choices. However, he signaled support for someone he said was present at the event.

"Regarding politics, don't rush political matters, even though maybe the ones we support are here," said Jokowi, Saturday, May 21.

"It's been said, don't be in a hurry. It seems like this is going to be rushed," Jokowi continued.

Meanwhile, the Governor of Central Java, Ganjar Pranowo, said that he did not want to rush the GR or make it big.

"Ojo milky calls sopo (don't be in a hurry to say who, don't call me og (don't call me anyway) Don't GR," he said, Sunday, May 22, evening.
