Procession of Inauguration of the President and Vice President-elect, Jokowi – Ma’ruf unceasing support. This is certainly good news that shows the community’s commitment to participate in the success of the state agenda.
This Inauguration Moment was like a thanksgiving event for the election of the Jokowi-Ma’ruf pair as President and Vice President 2019-2024. The highlight of the democratic party is said to have been eagerly awaited, considering that through this procession it marked the journey of the new round of the archipelago to be even better. In this regard, the flow of support to Jokowi-Ma’ruf seems to have not stopped. Not only from investigators, but also various groups including students.
With this amount of support, it is hoped that the inauguration process will run smoothly without parties who want to intervene in this event. Because, as we know, the news of the rise of those who try to thwart this procession are increasingly intense in the days leading up to the inauguration.
One of the parties giving its support is the United Jakarta High School Alumni (ASJB). Which will feature a typical Papuan social dance, Yospan (Yosim Pancar). In preparation for the inauguration ceremony on 20 October. According to reports, ASJB has hundreds of participants joined in it. Indra Soeharto as the Chairperson of ASJB stated that if these participants would gather and present activities which represented one of the rich traditions of his province. And as a form of support for Jokowi-Ma’ruf to undergo this state agenda procession.
In addition, he also added that this activity is also a form of solidarity and empathy for our brothers and sisters from Papua. Because Papua is an inseparable part of the Republic of Indonesia. The spirit of unity and excitement was also presented to transmit a positive spirit for the unity and integrity of Indonesia.
Another form of support came from the Political Group of Work (Golkar). Which expressed his commitment to continue to support President Jokowi in the second term in government. He said he gave support because he wanted to contribute to advancing democracy in the country. Therefore, Golkar hopes that before the inauguration there will be no more parties or groups that have a tendency to have wild political interests. Namely, efforts to reduce President Jokowi because he had been elected in the Presidential Election a few months ago. Golkar also stressed that it was ready to put on a body to secure the inauguration.
Bambang Soesatyo as the chair of the MPR who is also a politician in the Golkar party also said a number of heads of state would be invited to this procession. So it is unethical if there are demonstrations that lead to chaos like the incident some time ago. He also asked students to participate in honoring the inauguration process of the president and vice-president on 20 October. Bambang also stated that he was ready to put on the body during the inauguration procession. Moreover, if there is a demonstration of illegal riding. Because it is against the interests of the nation and also the state.
Meanwhile, the Chairperson of the Golkar Party’s DPP for the creative economy, Ricky Rachmadi, stressed that his party would continue to be active in supporting the Jokowi’s government programs which would soon be running. He added that if this support is given so that it can be implemented and run smoothly. He considered if the support of Golkar was a moral and political obligation, both as a coalition bearer party or as a force within the Jokowi government environment.
In addition, Golkar as one of the important elements of the nation, is also responsible for the process of cooling the political temperature that heats up. Even with trying a variety of solutions. Furthermore, the Golkar Party expressed its readiness to guard Jokowi’s government in this second period, which will be carried out based on an optimal political spirit as well as constitutionally.
Seeing the compactness as well as cooperation to support the inauguration of President Jokowi, hopefully it will be able to provide positive energy which is very important to create a safe, comfortable and conducive situation. Bearing in mind that this security is not only the obligation of the state but also the security apparatus. However, it is also the role of every citizen in it. Mari, together support and oversee the inauguration on 20 October, as a sign of advancing to a new phase of more successful development. And strengthen and strengthen the unity and integrity of the Indonesian nation.
