Presidential Candidate Prabowo Vows to Continue to Work Hard
Jakarta. Presidential hopeful Prabowo Subianto said Saturday that he would dedicate his life to serving the people.
Prabowo made the statement in front of thousands of Banjarbaru locals in South Kalimantan. The candidate told the crowd that he had lived a blessed life, and he wanted to do more for the people in return.
“God has been good with me. God has granted me many blessings,” Prabowo told his supporters in the Rudy Resnawan sports complex.
