Prabowo Subianto’s First Speech After Winning the Election
Prabowo Subianto delivered his first speech after being appointed as elected President of Indonesia by the General Election Commission on Wednesday, March 20 2024.
In his speech, Prabowo expressed his thanks to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and the Indonesian people who made him elected president in the 2024 elections.
Prabowo explained that without the support of President Jokowi and the Indonesian people, he would not emerge as the winner in the 2024 elections. Apart from that, Prabowo was also grateful to be embraced by President Jokowi, who had been his political opponent in the previous elections in Indonesia.
“I have finished fighting Jokowi and for the last 10 years I have been embraced by Jokowi and he encouraged me so that today I received a mandate from the people,” said Prabowo at his residence on Jalan Kertanegara 4, Jakarta, Wednesday, March 20 2024.
In this regard, Prabowo explained that now is the right time for the entire community to unite again and not be divided due to the elections, considering that we are currently entering the holy month of Ramadan.
“I am Prabowo Subianto as the elected President together with Gibran Rakabuming Raka, the elected vice president promoted by the Advanced Indonesia Coalition. We express our thanks and appreciation to all chairmen, cadres and member parties of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition,” he said. (ATN)
