Jakarta. Presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto recently reminisced about his late mother Dora Marie Sigar when he visited the latter’s hometown in Langowan, Manado.

Prabowo even sang “Sio Mama” (‘Dear Mama’), a song about a child missing his mother. 

“I am Prabowo Subianto. Half of my blood is the Minahasa blood. My mother was born and grew up in Langowan,” Prabowo said.

“My mother is from here. I’m sure she is smiling looking at us from above. Let me sing ‘Sio Mama’ for my mother,” Prabowo said. 

The crowd, along with retired army general Wiranto, also sang together with him. Prabowo also sang ‘O Ina Ni Keke’ and danced the iconic ‘Poco-Poco’ that day.
