President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo is seen as a phenomenal candidate. The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) has decided to support Jokowi in running again in 2019 presidential election.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS – A recent series of statements and moves by political elites regarding the 2019 Presidential Election seemingly shows that they are engaged in a war of nerves against one another. Most plans and ideas proposed in this period are seemingly “nothing serious” and may not even be in real consideration.

Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University political communications lecturer Gun Gun Heryanto said the idea of nominating Vice President Jusuf Kalla as President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo’s running mate in next year’s election was an example of this. “I am sure that those who proposed and responded to the idea clearly understood the Constitution and the Election Law,” Gun said on Friday (2/3/2018).
