JAKARTA - The general chairman of the Gerindra Party has signaled his willingness to run again as a presidential candidate in the 2024 presidential election.

He said that signal when telling the meaning of a struggle to Gerindra cadres during the National Meeting at SICC Bogor, West Java, Friday, August 12, night.

Prabowo emphasized that there is no defeat for a fighter. According to him, losing is just a confession in the heart to accept defeat itself.

"For a fighter there is no word defeat. For a fighter defeat is only defeat. There is only meaning of defeat if in our hearts, we accept it as defeat," Prabowo said.

Prabowo reminded that for a fighter, defeat is normal. If you fall, he said, then get up with a smile so that in the future you are optimistic about winning.

"For a fighter to fall, get used to it, if you fall, you get up again, you fall and get up again! An ordinary fighter when you fall," he said.

Even Prabowo considered that returning to fight was more noble than slumping to accept defeat.

"It is nobler to enter the arena, more noble to fight for the truth of justice, to fall and rise with a smile, to rise with joy, to rise with optimism, we will not lose in our hearts," Prabowo said.

Prabowo then mentioned the satire that questioned his intention to run again as a presidential candidate. The reason is, Prabowo has fought in the presidential election three times but he has never won. Even he never gave up.

"Some people ask, maybe they are sarcastic, you have lost so many times, why do you want to go again?," he said.

Prabowo also considered that the person who questioned it was someone who did not understand the meaning of struggle.

"Maybe they don't understand the meaning of struggle," Prabowo said.

Prabowo also emphasized that as long as he is still breathing, he will always fight to build Indonesia.

"As long as I am still being breathed by the almighty, as long as I am still given strength, I will fight for my people, to achieve what the founders of our nation have pioneered," he said.

"We are still here fighting for you young Indonesians. We want to fight for young people so that you will inherit a better Indonesia," he added.
