Anies Baswedan's Pros and Cons Demo, Demonstrators Touch on President Jokowi

The demonstration carried out by two different groups in front of Jakarta City Hall was not only debating the policies of the Governor of Jakarta, Anies Baswedan.

A number of demonstrators who supported Anies also carried banners highlighting President Joko Widodo's position.

A number of videos and photos were uploaded to social media.

The demonstration, which brought together two good times groups who were pro and con of Anies Baswedan's policy last Tuesday, not only became heated on the ground and had to be mediated by the police.

The discourse debate at the demonstration apparently did not only present conflict regarding Anies Baswedan's policies as governor.

On social media, videos of demonstration participants have appeared which actually offend President Joko Widodo's position.

Yesterday's demonstration initially raised questions about policies for handling the impact of the floods that occurred at the beginning of this year.

Those who criticize Anies' policy assess that the suboptimal handling caused yesterday's major floods in Jakarta.

The police during security yesterday had to remind the demonstration participants several times not to get caught up in provocation and commit violence.
