Encounters that Cool Friendship

KOMPAS/RONY ARIYANTO NUGROHO

Meeting and discussion of a number of the Chairpersons of the Election Winning Body (Bapilu) of political parties with the editorial staff of Kompas Daily and Kompas R&D regarding the results of the Kompas Research and Development national leadership survey at the Kompas Tower, Jakarta, Thursday (3/11/2022).

The tight competition among political parties to win the 2024 general election does not necessarily mean politicians are always in tension, let alone hostile toward each other. They can still mingle in a warm atmosphere with laughter. This was seen when the heads of campaign teams for the political parties gathered at the Kompas Tower in Jakarta on Thursday (3/11/2022) afternoon.

Politicians, both from political parties that have seats in the House of Representatives and those that do not sat in the same room to listen and discuss the results of the Kompas Research and Development (Litbang) National Leadership Survey for the October 2022 period. The vote gains for each political party in the 2019 election did not differentiate position and did not create distance among the politicians who came to represent the 16 political parties.
