PADANG - Secretary General of the PDI-P DPP Hasto Kristianto stated that the companion to the presidential candidate (candidate) from the PDI-P Ganjar Pranowo must get the largest support from the Indonesian people.

"Of course we see that we are looking for electoral aspects, so that one combination in Pak Ganjar's leadership with representatives who will accompany him will certainly get the largest support from the Indonesian people, so that they can win the election," said Hasto as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, July 4.

He said that the candidate for vice president (cawapres) who accompanied Ganjar Pranowo must certainly be a complement to the leadership aspect of the PDI-P presidential candidate.

According to him, the PDI-P has imitated leadership figures such as Bung Karno and Bung Hatta.

Hasto menilai sosok capres Ganjar Pranowo karena memiliki pengalaman dua periode menjadi legislatif, dua periode sebagai gubernur, sehingga tentu memiliki pengalaman pemerintahan sangat luas.

"We also understand Indonesia's leadership in the international world. The Russia-Ukraine war, South China's sea tension requires a presidential responsibility for the future, but also a representative figure," he said.

Therefore, according to Hasto, the candidate for vice president is of course the one who has professional abilities and PDI Perjuang is looking for the best and complements each other's leadership for the people.

"The ability of technique, tactics and being able to spread what is the PDI-P National Working Meeting (Rakernas) is the poor and abandoned children are kept by the state," he said.
