He arrived at the venue at Wisma Serba Guna Senayan, South Jakarta, at around 8.10pm. Several ministers were also seen at the event including trade minister Thomas Lembong, manpower minister Hanif Dhakiri, administrative reform minister Yuddy Chrisnandi as well as presidential advisory council member Sidarto Danusubroto and presidential communication team member Sukardi Rinakit.
The organizing committee chairman, Michael Umbas, said he hoped the event would deepen the relations between Jokowis supporters.
"We hope this national gathering would mark a new era and deepen the relations between Jokowis supporters to jointly work to serve the people as a family within the house of Great Indonesia," he said on Saturday.
He said the event was held by supporters grouped in Bara JP, Projo, Seknas Jokowi, Almisbat, Jokowi Mania, Solmet Jokowi, Arus Bawah Jokowi, Duta Jokowi, Kawan Jokowi, Jasmev, Komunitas Alumni Perguruan Tinggi, Sekber Jokowi, GRI, RKIH, Kabar Nawacita, EP For Jokowi, Gerak Indonesia, RPJB, JNIB, Kornas Jokowi, JPKP, Jaman, GK Center, and Forkami.
Umbas said the volunteers had been resolved to unite without having to wipe out their identities and characters of their movement as a form of their commitment to fully supporting the government of President Jokowi.
"As supporters we will always be loyal to and accompany President Jokowi who is also the father of the people of Indonesia. A lot of important agendas are being carried out by the President including tax amnesty that we must support," he said.(*)
