Vice President Believes People Are Smart In Choosing Transformative Presidential Candidates

JAKARTA - Vice President Ma'ruf Amin said that the Indonesian people were smart in choosing transformative presidential and vice presidential candidates.

"I think the public already knows, so I don't need to give a detailed description. They already know that transformative is of course the one that can make improvements going forward, can advance the nation, so that means it's not static, it can keep up with the times," explained the Vice President quoted by ANTARA, Monday, June 19.

Previously, during the National Dialogue with the Indonesian diaspora in Uzbekistan last week, the Vice President invited the public to elect transformative leaders in the 2024 elections.

In the context of the presidential election, the Vice President said that the people are smart and understand which presidential and vice presidential candidates are transformative.

"I think people already know about it. I believe our society is already smart. This is not the first time we have elections, we have had it many times, so we already know, and every day we know what each candidate is like, that already knows. Therefore, I don't need to call it like this (characteristics)," he said.

During a meeting with the "Barisan Relawan Jokowi Presiden (Bara JP)" sympathizers in Bogor, West Java, last Sunday (18/6), the President also left a message to sympathizers and the public in general, so that they would not choose the wrong leader next because world conditions are still uncertain.

The President stressed the importance of the next 13-year period to determine where Indonesia is headed, so the 2024, 2029 and 2034 leadership is very important.
