Elected pair of President and Vice President, Jokowi – Ma’ruf received a lot of support and escort related to the inauguration which only had to count the days. This indicates the maturity of people’s democracy along with the victory of Jokowi-Ma’ruf in the 2019 elections.
Full support ahead of Jokowi’s Inauguration – Ma’ruf is increasingly coming. Not only the community, alliance, even the community, even the students will be guarding this procession. Like the party that has been waiting for, this inauguration is the momentum that a number of parties have been waiting for. Especially for supporters of Jokowi – Ma’ruf, in order to carry out the mandate of governance for the next five years.
As reported there are a number of pro Jokowi elements expressed readiness to participate to escort the procession. One of them is Pro Jokowi’s Volunteer or popularly known as Projo, which is chaired by Budi Arie Setiadi. He said if the technical planning had been arranged. However, given the high enthusiasm, certainly there will be a sea of people present to support this inauguration.
Previously he also did not dismiss his worries related to the problem of stowaways. However, he also respects freedom of opinion and expresses his aspirations through demonstrations. However, he hopes that this kind of action will not disrupt the 5-year state agenda. He also firmly stated that the inauguration procession was not about Jokowi-Ma’ruf, but respected the mandate of the results of democracy that had been given by the people, at the last Presidential Election. So he reminded all parties not to intervene, let alone frustrate this inauguration.
Support and escort came from the party nicknamed the West Java Village Volunteer Volunteers (Brigade) 01. The organization is preparing to oversee the inauguration procession of the elected President and Vice President for the period 2019-2024. Which will be held 20 October. Unmitigated at least 10 thousand cadres from West Java 01 Brigade will glide to Jakarta for the procession of inauguration escort. In fact, they firmly stated that they were ready to attach themselves to anyone who wanted to intervene inauguration
Cecep Kholiludin as Chairman of the West Java 01 Brigade stressed, if the inauguration of the elected President and Vice President is the highlight of the democratic party that must be held. Moreover, the General Election Commission (KPU) has set the pair as President and Vice President for the period 2019-2024, which is in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
He considered if the people’s sovereignty that was realized through this election should not be disturbed by any party even for any reason. Because the election results have been decided by the KPU, Bawaslu (Election Oversight Body), and the Constitutional Court. Which is constitutionally valid and has a binding character. Therefore, the inauguration must be accepted by all elements of the nation also carried out sincerely and happily.
Cecep continued that the ten thousand West Java 01 Brigade cadres would later join the other volunteer organizations. In addition to providing support and escort, the entire Jokowi-Ma’ruf volunteer organization will also hold a thanksgiving event later. For information, West Java 01 Brigade consists of a number of village elements, namely village activists, and also the community. So that his arrival in Jakarta also represented rural communities.
Not only that, Cecep also fully supports the combined security forces of the TNI and Polri to impose strict sanctions on anyone who wants to interfere or try to obstruct the way of the inauguration of the President and Vice President of this latest period. Cecep and members of the West Java 01 Brigade firmly stated that the TNI and Polri must guarantee the security of the inauguration procession. They also vowed to protect the motherland, including regarding protecting the choices of the Indonesian people to the point of death.
Regarding the support and control of the inauguration of the President and Vice-President, there is no doubt. Starting from the elements of the community in rural to urban areas are ready to take part in securing the process. Even a number of parties from the political elite are also students not spared to give their role regarding this state agenda. Hopefully the inauguration ceremony on October 20 will run smoothly. Furthermore, we hope that we will embody the welfare of the people of Indonesia on the shoulders of President Jokowi and Vice President Ma’ruf Amin. Hopefully you will be able to make the Archipelago become a nation that is bigger, stronger and stronger and respected by other countries.
