Jakarta (Antara) - The Indonesia Democratic Party Struggle and its coalition partner the National Democrat Party have set up campaign and success teams to support the success of their candidate Jokowi in the presidential election on July 9. "As the election date is near, today we agreed to officially declare a PDIP-Nasdem success team for Jokowi," Nasdem's general chairman Surya Paloh said after meeting with Jokowi here at the Nasdem headquarters on Friday. Surya said as the general chairman of the party that supports Jokowi's bid for president, he hoped the team can immediately use the time left to set up working teams. "The chief of the success team will be made known in two or three days. The two parties' secretary generals will be the presidium of the success team," he said. He added that with goodwill he believed that the two parties can convince the people that their best choice for president is Jokowi. He said the two parties had agreed to combine their energy in the presidential election and to support Jokowi's presidential bid. Joko Widodo alias Jokowi, meanwhile, said he had told Surya Paloh that 60 days before the election was short and so he hoped the team can start working. "There will be no more meetings again. Tomorrow the team will start to act and work on land and in the air," he said. (*) Reporting by Syaiful Hakim
