Jakarta (Antara) - The United Development Party (PPP) congratulated the President and Vice President-elect, Jokowi and Yusuf Kalla, here on Friday, following Thursday's confirmation of their election by the court. "PPP wishes them success in carrying out their mandate. We hope they will be successful in implementing their agenda of development to promote the welfare of the people," secretary general Romahurmuzy said in a press statement received here on Friday. He noted that the Constitutional Court ruling was final, binding and must be honored by the entire population. "PPP believes the court's decision is the final decision of the presidential election and must be seen as a turning point for the nation to jointly build the country," he said. PPP is one of the parties that supported the Prabowo SubiantO-Hatta Rajasa pair, who recently filed a lawsuit against the General Election Commission's decision declaring the Jokowi-JK pair as the winner of the presidential election on July 9. Romahurmuzy said PPP considered the constitutional process to be part of efforts to improve the system of presidential elections and democracy. He added that the PPP would help the new government in its efforts to improve the welfare of the people by positioning itself as a constructive and critical partner. He called on all people to reconcile their differences. "The game is over. The contest has finished and so let us join hands to build Indonesia to become superior," he said. To all who had supported the Prabowo-Hatta pair, PPP expressed thanks, saying, "The fight to make the Prabowo-Hatta pair win is over, but the struggle to realize the sovereignty of the people and justice will continue, in cooperation with the entire nation," he said.
