Basuki Tjahaja Purnama-Djarot Saiful Hidayat: Battling for a Basuki Win
During the Gue 2 Concert held in Senayan, Central Jakarta, two weeks ago, many people dressed in black formed a line to welcome Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok) and Djarot Saiful Hidayat to the stage. That day, the campaign was livened by many celebrities hailing from the Indonesian capital.
This group in black was the Brigade Beringin, which was formed by the Jakarta branch of the Golkar Party. Together with the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P), the Hanura Party, and the National Democrat (NasDem) Party, Golkar is supporting the candidacy of Ahok and Djarot. "Their presence in Senayan was to test out security," said Yorrys Raweyai, Coordinating Chairman for Political, Legal and Security Affairs for Golkar, last week.
