Then I found out how the residents felt at that time, wow, I was moved, I was moved, I was moved, and I was just going to stay at home. This is the taste of you, this is the existing feeling," he said.

There is no explanation about the reason why the resident referred to as Ganjar. 'turn off the door' of the house when Jokowi came. But for Ganjar this is a big social capital.
