WIRANTO WANTS TO SEE PEOPLE LAUGH IN HAPPINESS
Sukabumi, June 25 (ANTARA) - Presidential hopeful Jusuf Kalla's running mate Wiranto said he had agreed to accompany Kalla to lead the nation because he wanted to see the people laugh in happiness.
"I want to see the people laugh because of happiness as most of them at present are still miserable," Wiranto said in a campaign dialog here on Thursday.
He said there would be more justice and self reliance in Indonesia if the country was led by the right person who had the courage to make right decisions quickly.
"Change in the country can happen only if there is a change in its leadership. With a leader who is different in character and policies from the present one, the quality of the people's life will be better than before," Wiranto said.
He also promised to pay special attention to people at the bottom of the social and economic ladder, if he was elected vice president in the July election.
"As Muslims, Jusuf Kalla and I are called upon to change the situation from bad to better through the presidential election," Wiranto said, calling on the people in Sukabumi to vote for the Kalla-Wiranto pair in the July 8 election.
During his campaign in Bekasi, West Java, recently, Wiranto offered a national self-reliant economy which he said was safer and more able to improve the people's welfare.
"Let us return to our true Constitution about national self-reliance. The state should make the people prosper and the economy it applies should be based on the principle of national self-reliance," Wiranto said before around 2,000 people attending the dialog in Bekasi on Monday.
He said a free-market economy which had proven to agonize the people and only benefited a group of capital owners would never be practiced in the country if Jusuf Kalla and he won the July presidential election.
Wiranto added that they also would not apply neo-liberalism which was just a form of freedom in the interest of rich people.
"It is said in the 1945 Constitution that our land, water, and natural resources will be developed entirely for the people's welfare and national development," Wiranto said. ***1***
