“Kaesang is a candidate for mayor of Depok who will be promoted and won. As Kaesang’s statement will be all outPSI will also super all out,” Grace said via text message to CNNIndonesia.comFriday (9/6).

Spokesperson for the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Sigit Widodo explained that Kaesang was not yet a PSI cadre.

After Kaesang wore the PSI shirt, Sigit hoped that a decision would be made soon. He prayed that Kaesang would join the party bearing the rose logo as soon as possible.

“Until now, Mas Kaesang has not joined PSI and as far as I know he has not joined other parties,” Sigit said via text message.

“Usually ordinary people, ordinary conversation is normal. But if both of them can wear ordinary shirts from ordinary parties filled with ordinary people, of course it can be extraordinary,” Giring wrote on his Twitter account, Thursday (8/6).
