Jakarta –
The Crescent Star Party (PBB) has announced its political support for Gerindra chairman Prabowo Subianto in the 2024 presidential election. The UN has revealed the reasons behind Prabowo’s support.
“In 2014 we support Pak Prabowo, but in 2019 we support Pak Jokowi. So we think yes, if Pak Jokowi can be elected or run again, we will consider Pak Jokowi again,” UN Secretary-General Afriansia Noor told reporters at the UNGO office in South Jakarta on Monday (July 24, 2023).
“Only because the constitution does not allow it, and as a result of intense communication between Pak Yusril and Pak Prabowo, we finally agreed to support Pak Prabowo,” he continued.
Afriansyah saw that Prabowo was a figure who could continue Jokowi’s agenda. So the program will be sustainable in the future.
“This means that this program does not get stuck, does not stop, and of course we will support Pak Prabowo. This indicates that Pak Prabowo and Pak Jokowi are currently interacting very intensively as ministers in his cabinet,” he said.
Prabowo is said to be in charge of his duties at the Ministry of Defense. This consideration is the reason why the UN supports Prabowo.
In addition, another reason is that Prabowo is the leader of the party. So it is believed that Prabowo has more power to make the country a better place.
“This means that important policies should lead to giving more importance to the well-being and development of a better Indonesia,” he explained.
