Thousands of security forces are ready to be deployed in securing the inauguration of the President and Vice President, on October 20, 2019. This effort was carried out in order to provide a sense of security to the public and support the smooth inauguration process of Jokowi-Ma’ruf.
The highlight of the democratic party is just counting the days. The president and vice president-elect are apparently also waiting for this procession. In order to build a nation more shot again, more robust and resilient. Apart from the events that adorn the days leading up to the end of his term of office, this inauguration will be the most beautiful gift for the Jokowi-Ma’ruf couple. Events that are so complex ranging from the seemingly small to a class of political elites, riots that occurred in several regions enough to test the patience of this number one.
However, there will be a rainbow after the storm. And the expected Inauguration procession will soon be carried out, following good news from various problems faced by the Government. Even with the security forces, who seemed tireless in supporting the country. His work which helped guard and secure against incidents that occurred must be thumbs up and appreciated. Until now, it is said that they are preparing to secure the inauguration on 20 October.
The latest news is that the East Java Regional Police, Inspector General Luki Hermawan, is holding a ceremony and prayers together to pray for a peaceful Indonesia. In addition, during the special ceremony, prayers were also said that the inauguration process for the Republic of Indonesia President on October 20 will run smoothly, without any obstruction. Luki said that his side had always coordinated with the TNI to create conditions that were safe and peaceful.
Luki also said that there was support from all East Java people who always got along well so that it was very helpful for the National Police in securing their territory. Meanwhile, Pangdam V Brawijaya Army Major General R Wisnoe Prasetja Boedu also expressed his readiness to help the police to guard the East Java region. He added that the Indonesian Armed Forces, Navy and Air Force in East Java Province were devoted to providing security support such as the time of the Presidential election. So that one fifth of the Police force will later be deployed according to police orders. So the strength is at least the same as during the presidential election procession a few months ago.
Unmitigated as many as 27 thousand personnel in the form of a joint National Police-TNI will be alerted to maintain the inauguration of the elected presidential and vice presidential candidates on 20 October. This was guaranteed by Police Commissioner Asep Adi Saputra, as the Head of the Public Information Division of the Police Public Relations Division, said that this security would be carried out throughout Indonesia. Security priorities will be centered in the DKI Jakarta area, which will be the location of the inauguration procession.
Reported full alert will be carried out with the security of joint forces, throughout the inauguration day. This security alert will be declared plenary the next day. Asep added that the context of the series of democratic processes will be strengthened by the support of the police which is carrying out a steady operation that will end on 21 October. So it can be concluded that the entire police force will join in securing.
Previously, Wiranto as the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs had claimed the group that was riding student demonstrations. Who cast his rejection of the RKUHP and a number of bills in the DPR / MPR Building, Jakarta. And this demonstration was done not to correct government policy. According to Wiranto, the group wanted to occupy the DPR / MPR so that the attempt to inaugurate Joko Widodo, the president and vice president by the DPR 2019-2024 period would fail. It is suspected that Jokowi and Ma’ruf were declared winners at the democratic party a few months ago. They pocketed up to 55.50 percent of the votes, surpassing its rival Prabowo Subianto – Sandiaga Uno who only managed to capture 44.50 percent of the votes.
Apart from all that, the inauguration is a form of the people’s mandate which must be carried out. So as good citizens, let’s support the inauguration procession on the 20th of October. And for all elements of the security apparatus, both the TNI and Polri will play a prime role in securing the top of the democratic party. For President Jokowi – Ma’ruf, safe to lead Indonesia in the next 5 years. We hope to keep it on your shoulders, hopefully you can build a better Indonesia again and again.
