Jakarta (Antara) - Some 250 thousand supporters thronged the Bung Karno Sports Stadium to follow a grand campaign held by the Prabowo-Hatta Rajasa pair on Sunday. In his oration, vice presidential candidate Hatta Rajasa called on his supporters to conduct well-mannered campaigns. "We should not be provoked by negative rumors and black campaigns. We should avoid these kinds of campaigns because they are not in accordance with the Indonesian people's personality," Hatta Rajasa who is the running mate of presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto, said. He said that with hard work, God willing, the Prabowo-Hatta duo would win the upcoming presidential elections on July 9, 2014. Hatta also expressed gratitude to the people of Indonesia for their participation in making the 2014 presidential election a success. Hundreds of thousands of supporters of the Prabowo-Hatta presidential and vice presidential ticket thronged the Bung Karno Sport Stadium for taking part in the grand rally on Sunday. They came from Jakarta and its buffer towns of Depok, Bogor, Tangerang and Bekasi. Music groups such as Raja and Soneta enlivened the event. Noted musician Ahmad Dhani and Dangdut music 'King' Rhoma Irama also entertained supporters. The hilarious rally was also marked with a marching band by the Gerindra (Greater Indonesia Movement Party) youths. In the meantime, presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto said on the occasion that there were people who were afraid if he won the upcoming presidential elections. "There are people who are afraid if Prabowo wins the elections. They are afraid of a clean government who will defend its own people," Prabowo said when campaigning in front of about 250 thousand supporters at the Bung Karno Sports Stadium here on Sunday. (*)
