Surabaya, E Java (Antara) - National Democrat Party (NasDem) chairman Surya Paloh accidentally met Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) Secretary General Tjahjo Kumolo at the VIP room of Juanda airport here on Monday. Surya, who had just arrived from Palembang after staging an election campaign in South Sumatra, accidentally met Tjahjo, who was at that time, waiting for PDI-P Chairperson Megawati Soekarnoputri. The NasDem chairman arrived in Surabaya for a pilgrimage to the tomb of former President Abdurrahman "Gus Dur" Wahid in Jombang, and the tomb of Gus Dur's grandfather, KH Hasyim Asy'ari at Tebu Ireng Islamic boarding school. After visiting the tombs, Surya Palog will stage an election campaign at Tembelang Square in Jombang, while Megawati and Tjahjo Kumolo will stage an open campaign in Surabaya. The unscheduled meeting of NasDem and PDI-P leaders was the first after the declaration of Jakarta Governor Joko "Jokowi" Widodo's nomination as presidential candidate from PDI-P. Surya and Tjhojo, during the meeting, probably discussed issues surrounding election campaigns and the nomination of presidential candidates. (*)
