"My support for the 2019 presidential election does not represent all volunteers and supporters who have led us to win the 2018 East Java Regional Head Election," Parawansa told newsmen on the sidelines of the "Khofifah-Emil Volunteer Ceremonial Meal" event here on Saturday.
However, the Nahdlatul Ulama Muslimat general chairperson did not deny that she will probably communicate her support in the 2019 Presidential Election to her volunteers and supporters in the 2018 East Java Regional Election in the near future.
"For the time being, if I am asked whom to support in the 2019 presidential election, I would like to communicate the victory of Pak Jokowi and Amin with the affiliations and volunteers in the 2018 East Java regional election in the near future," she stated.
Parawansa noted that including the members in the management of the Muslimat Nahdlatul Ulama, she would provide an opportunity to communicate with regard to candidates who would be supported in the 2019 Presidential Election.
"The branch administrators and the Muslimat Nahdlatul Ulama in East Java also met Jokowi when the president visited the Ammanatul Ummah Islamic Boarding School in Pacet, Mojokerto, on Thursday," Parawansa revealed.
On that occasion, the branch administrators and the Muslimat Nahdlatul Ulama region in East Java asked direct questions to Jokowi regarding various issues that occurred in the country.
