Jakarta –
Pilkada should be a means of ‘attacking’ each other about ideas. Unfortunately, the candidate for Deputy Mayor of South Tangerang, Rahayu Saraswati Djojohadikusumo, in fact, received political attacks related to physicality.
The photo of her being pregnant 5 years ago was picked up by netizens with the narrative ‘punch it out’. This is not the first time the physical woman who is familiarly called Sara has been brought up. Tweets about thighs have also been controversial.
Here’s the summary:
Teasing ‘Smooth Thighs’
This started from the taunts of the Democratic Party (PD) politician Cipta Panca Laksana about ‘thigh of the candidate for Deputy Mayor Tangsel smooth’. Netizens then linked her to the only female Wawalkot Tangsel candidate, Sara.
“The thighs of the candidate for deputy mayor of Tangsel are very smooth,” Panca tweeted on his Twitter account, @ panca66, as seen by detik.com, Saturday (5/9).
Panca’s taunt was later answered by Said Didu. The former Secretary of the Ministry of SOEs responded with the term ‘no photo is a hoax’.
A netizen sent the conversation between the two figures to one of Rahayu Saraswati’s posts. The woman who was familiar with Sara also responded to the netizen’s teasing. It says sexual harassment of women has nothing to do with political choice.
“Harassment has nothing to do with political affiliation, different political choices do not mean that I can be harassed, or because I am a woman does not mean that I can be harassed, harassment is only done by those who are dwarf and cowardly at heart,” said Sara on Twitter.
Gerindra’s nephew, Prabowo Subianto, admits that the viral tweet does not link his name. However, Sara reminded that the only female candidate for Deputy Mayor of Tangsel is herself.
“Yes, it was said that he did not include names. So he could only mean other candidates for deputy mayor, who are all men. Maybe,” said Sara.
