Jakarta –
Bacapres Anies Baswedan sat with Veronica Tan, the ex-wife of Basuki Tjahaja Purnama or Ahok at a national gathering with the Chinese Community. Veronica admitted that she was happy after talking at the same table with Anies.
“Yes, we are happy, today we can gather as a community to listen to Mr. Anies convey togetherness, unity, that we are one nation,” said Veronica Tan to journalists at the event venue, Friday (15/9/2023).
Vero admitted that he was happy to hear the national speech that Anies delivered at the event. According to him, Anies’ presentation using the analogy of kolak food truly describes Indonesia.
“Earlier, I was really happy to hear that kolak means the correct thing. Yes, fried rice has (the word) rice in it. As for kolak, actually there isn’t any name (mixture) in it. But it is a nation. So it means we are different, but “We are one. That’s the most important thing,” said Vero.
When asked whether he would support Anies in the upcoming 2024 presidential election competition, Vero said he would first look at the program that Anies would launch.
“Well, everyone can provide a program, Mr. Anies is also one of the residents chosen by the community, so he can participate in the competition, sir,” explained Vero.
“So, we’ll see what programs will be given to Indonesia in the future. That’s what we will all see,” he concluded.
