Jokowi Intensive Working Visit to Central Java, Palace Confirms Not Campaigning

Dream - Special Staff Coordinator to the President, Ari Dwipayana, explained about President Joko Widodo's working visit, which has recently been conducted extensively in Central Java. Ari ensured that the president wants to ensure that government programs are implemented as in other regions.

"This is something that is also the same, (with) activities that have been carried out by the President in various places. Ensuring that the basic needs of the people are available, ensuring that government programs are running,"

The text translates to: "words from Ari Dwipayana in a statement to journalists at the Ministry of State Secretariat Building, Jakarta, Monday, January 29, 2024 quoted from Merdeka.com."

The statement was conveyed by Ari in response to journalists' questions about the reasons why President Joko Widodo has been increasingly conducting working visits in various cities in Central Java. The President's working visit in the region previously led by Ganjar Pranowo has created a perception among some parties that the President intends to encourage the acquisition of votes for certain candidate pairs in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres).

Regarding the allegations, Ari emphasized that the President's activities in Central Java are not related to the election. According to him, the President wants to ensure that government programs, including priority programs that directly affect the community, are truly implemented in the region.

"There are no Campaign Opportunities"

Regarding the President's campaign opportunities, Ari stated that so far there are no plans from the president to campaign. "Until now, there are no campaign plans. None," said Ari.

"Previously, President Jokowi stated that state officials are not prohibited from campaigning. According to him, the president and ministers are allowed to campaign and support in the 2024 Election."

"It is the democratic right of every person, every minister is the same, the president is allowed to campaign, the president is allowed to take sides."

"However, the most important thing is that during the campaign, the use of state facilities is not allowed."
"ujar Jokowi" translates to "said Jokowi" in English.
