Suara.com – The Deputy Chairperson of the Golkar Party DPP, Bambang Soesatyo alias Bamsoet, said that his party is still in compliance with the political fatsun to push the Golkar Party DPP General Chair Airlangga Hartarto as a presidential candidate in the 2024 Presidential Election.
This was conveyed by Bamsoet in the midst of PAN as a partner of the Golkar coalition. The United Indonesia Coalition (KIB) gave a signal to encourage the presidential-vice presidential duo pair Ganjar Pranowo and Erick Thohir.
“Yes, it’s a party decision (supporting Airlangga), we as political cadres and fatsun that we have must comply,” said Bamsoet at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Tuesday (28/2/2023).

“I can’t comment because that’s the general chairman’s domain, I’ll be wrong again, OK?” he said.
Ganjar-Erick Duet Signal
Previously, the National Mandate Party implied the names of the presidential and vice-presidential candidates to be carried in the 2024 presidential election through the “rhyme” of Ganjar Pranowo-Erick Thohir.
This was implied when the General Chairperson of PAN, Zulkifli Hasan, read a rhyme at the end of his welcoming speech at the PAN Election Winning National Coordination Meeting in Semarang, Sunday (26/2/2023).
“Allow me to end my speech at the PAN National Coordination Meeting. Take a walk to Simpanglima, don’t forget to buy spring rolls. If Pak Ganjar and Pak Erick are together, God willing, Indonesia will be more victorious,” said Zulhas, the nickname of the General Chair of PAN, which was greeted with thunderous applause from the thousands of cadres who attended the National Coordination Meeting.
