JAKARTA - Gerindra Party Chairman Prabowo Subianto welcomed the visit of PSI Chairman Kaesang Pangarep and his staff at his residence in Kertengara, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta.

Prabowo said that today was the second formal meeting after the Gerindra Party visited PSI headquarters some time ago.

"Earlier we were talking, exchanging ideas about the national situation. There are similarities in vision, we want a cool political and democratic style, which is full of friendship, kinship, harmony, and unity," Prabowo said in Kertanegara, Thursday, October 12. According to Prabowo, differences of opinion and opinion are part of democracy. In the upcoming elections, he wants a competition that is healthy and full of familiarity.

Meanwhile, PSI Chairman Kaesang Pangarep expressed his gratitude for his lively welcome. It is known, unlike the general chairman of other political parties, the presence of Kaesang in Kertanegara was welcomed by the Garuda Yaksa drumband team playing PSI march.

"Usually I call the Minister of Defense but this time because his position is the general chairman, so I call him Mr. Ketum," said Kaesang.

"Earlier he also said, if I was outside, I was indeed the minister, you are the son of the president. But here we are the same, both of the general chairmen of parties in Indonesia," he continued.

Kaesang said Prabowo prayed for PSI to qualify for parliament in the upcoming 2024 election.

"Maybe if the general chairman of Gerindra, his party is number 2 now, if we haven't entered parliament. But earlier he also said no, God willing, you will enter 2024 later," he said.
