Gerindra Kaltim, one of the political parties in Indonesia, has set a high target for the upcoming regional elections. The party aims to secure a landslide victory of 65 percent for their candidates, Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka, in the gubernatorial and mayoral elections.
Prabowo Subianto, the former presidential candidate and leader of Gerindra, is running for the governor of Jakarta, while Gibran Rakabuming Raka, the eldest son of President Joko Widodo, is running for the mayor of Surakarta. Both candidates are seen as strong contenders in their respective races, and Gerindra Kaltim is confident in their ability to secure a significant win.
The party’s high target of 65 percent reflects their confidence in the popularity and capabilities of their candidates. Prabowo Subianto, a former military general, has a strong base of support in Jakarta and is known for his leadership and nationalist ideals. Meanwhile, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, a successful entrepreneur and the son of the current president, is a well-known figure in Surakarta and has garnered a significant following among the youth and business community.
In addition to their strong candidates, Gerindra Kaltim is also banking on the support of their party machinery and alliances to ensure the success of their campaigns. The party has been actively mobilizing its members and supporters to campaign for Prabowo and Gibran, and has been working to build strategic alliances with other political parties and community leaders to secure a strong coalition.
The high target set by Gerindra Kaltim also underscores the party’s determination to make a strong statement in the regional elections. Securing a 65 percent victory would not only affirm the party’s political prowess but also send a clear message to the ruling party and its allies about Gerindra’s growing influence and presence in Indonesian politics.
As the regional elections draw near, all eyes will be on Gerindra Kaltim and their candidates, Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka. Whether the party can achieve their ambitious goal of a 65 percent victory remains to be seen, but one thing is certain – the regional elections are shaping up to be a highly contested and closely watched political battleground in Indonesia.
