KALLA-WIRANTO PAIR OPTIMISTIC TO WIN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
Jakarta, May 1 (ANTARA) - Vice Secretary General of Golkar party's executive board Iskandar Mandji admitted he was optimistic that Kalla-Wiranto pair would be able to win the upcoming presidential election in July, this year.
"I am sure this pair will be able to achieve victory in the election," he said at his party's office in Slipi, Jakarta, on Friday.
Iskandar made the statement on the sidelines of the Kalla-Wiranto declaration which was previously reported to find difficulty in picking Kalla's running mate for the upcoming presidential election.
Asked about the reason why Golkar picked Wiranto as Kalla's running mate, Iskandar said at least there was a similarity in chemistry.
"And besides, both Golkar and the People's Conscience Party (Hanura) give priority to the interest of the nation," he said.
In addition, he added, there was also similarity in platform particularly in building the nationbal economy.***
