TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Joko “Jokowi” Widodo volunteers asked members of the public that support the president to not fend off the opposition party’s social media movement through the hash tag #2019GantiPresiden urging for a presidential change in the 2019 election. Instead, the public was advised to ignore the hash tag.

That suggestion was stated by Chairman of the Gerakan Rakyat Nusantara R. Juniono Soehartjahjono. “We better focus on getting closer to the people through programs,” he said during President Jokowi’s 57th birthday celebration held in Jakarta yesterday.

Furthermore, Juniono reasons that fighting the hash tag attacks will only spark feuds among volunteers, which is a situation he strongly tries to avoid. He further explained that it is best to fully support Jokowi by grass root field movements.

He also hopes that the upcoming presidential election in 2019 takes place without witnessing ruptures emerging among the Indonesian society. “Don’t let differences create enemies,” he said in his attempt to urge people to respect other people’s opinions.

“Respond to mischief with kindness,” said Juniono.

Based on the monitoring of Drone Emprit, an app developed by social media expert Ismail Fahmi, the hash tag #2019GantiPresiden had become highly popular compared to the hash tags that supported Jokowi. He explained that Twitter saw the opposition’s hash tag tweeted 38 thousand times, meanwhile the pro-Jokowi hash tags topped at five thousand.
