REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, BANDUNG -- Presidential Candidate No. 2, Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo said that communists' allegation from several parties over him was an outrageous accusation. He said that he had tried to be patient, but the accusation continued to come.
"Many black campaigns spread false news about me. I tried to keep silence, but it spread everywhere. Now the communists' accusation comes. It was so outrageous," Jokowi said on.
According to former Solo mayor, if there are volunteers who become angry with the black campaign, it was normal. Jokowi and Jusuf Kalla have thousands and millions of volunteers. Maybe not all of them can hold patience.
Jokowi had repeatedly warned his volunteers that the bad actions should be replied with good behaviour. He said that majority of Indonesian people already knew who he is, where he comes from and his family.
"The communists' accusation is absolutely not true," he said.
He regretted the mass media giving tendentious news, which also provoked the situation ahead of general election on July 9, 2014.
