A flower board that drew the attention of wedding guests at a reception on Wednesday at Binjai, North Sumatra, with its unusual message “Gina & Heru Ganti Status / #2019GantiPresiden”, or “Gina & Heru Change Their Status / #2019ChangePresident”, has gone viral on social media. The hashtag has revved up the upcoming race between President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo and his archrival Prabowo Subianto, the Gerindra Party’s general chairman and patron who declared his presidential candidacy on Wednesday evening – albeit on the condition of support from “friendly parties”. The Gerindra Party is intensifying its lobbying of other political parties to create what it has dubbed as “the elephant coalition” to back Prabowo. The party has so far secured only the support of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS).
