JAKARTA - Presidential Candidate (Capres) Ganjar Pranowo asked girls not to rush into marriage. He said it would be better for them to go to the highest school so that they could become leaders in the future.

This was conveyed by Ganjar when he visited Cirebon City, West Java today, Saturday, June 3. On the sidelines of the consolidation event, he initially spoke with one of the members of the dance group that greeted him, namely the 16-year-old Orissa.

"What are you aiming for?" Ganjar asked Orissa.

"I want to be a policewoman," said Orissa.

During the event, Ganjar also talked with a teenage girl, Nissa, who reads the text of the proclamation. He has just graduated from SMK majoring in Light Vehicle Engineering.

"Want to get married soon?" asked the Governor of Central Java.

"No," Nissa replied firmly.

"Why?" replied Ganjar.

"I want to go to college first," answered Nissa, who later found out that she wanted to study Energy Conservation Engineering.

Ganjar then said that the wishes of the two teenage girls must be supported. Do not let them marry young so they do not get higher education.

"They want to go to college first. There are regents who are women here, I want these young women, they are not married early," he said at a consolidation event attended by PDI Perjuangan (PDIP) Cirebon cadres.

"He studied as high as he could with one hope, these young people will become great leaders in this republic," continued Ganjar, who was greeted by applause from the cadres present.

Furthermore, Ganjar invited PDIP cadres to listen to the voices of the people below. Just like he did with Orissa and Nissa to find out what they wanted.

So, in the future, their desire can develop because it is facilitated. "Not to mention those who make music, not those who do research, not those who have experience who help people. Tell how the value of Pancasila began to ground with this activity. If later we can facilitate it, this will be extraordinary," concluded Ganjar.
