Jokowi arrived at the NasDem office at 11 am and was greeted by PDIP Secretary General Tjahjo Kumolo before meeting with Surya Paloh.
The PDIP presidential hopeful and Tjahyo Kumolo were then ushered into Palohs office on the fifth floor of the NasDem office building.
In the company of NasDem Secretary General Patrice Rio Capella, Paloh also greeted Jokowi and Kumolo. No information has been released on what was discussed.
However, it has been rumored that PDIP and NasDem will probably seek to merge their votes during the presidential elections.
Bjahjo Kumolo said that several days ago he met with Surya Paloh for a discussion.
"After seeing the quick count of the legislative election results, Surya Paloh and I had a long discussion about efforts to develop the nation in the future," Kumolo said.
He said the main point of their discussion was to strengthen and develop the system of presidential government.
"PDIP has no term of coalition, but we want to build a political cooperation," Kumolo said.
