TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - THE NasDem Party declared Joko Widodo the presidential candidate for the 2014 and 2019 elections a long time before the political situation was heating up. By 2024, this party of Surya Paloh has made the same strategy by declaring Anies Baswedan the presidential candidate before other parties named their aspirants. The decision has a dire consequence. Jokowi, who promotes Prabowo Subianto and Ganjar Pranowo, cannot accept it that he did not invite Paloh to the meeting of government coalition parties. How intense is the feud between them in raising the heat of next year’s general elections?
