In the past, I didn't really pay attention to politics. So I wasn't looking into the history of the person for the election. Nowadays, because I'm more aware of politics, I consider who the person is that I will support during the election. I pay attention to the history of the candidate and also their track record. That's why now I know popular figures, such as the previous presidential candidate, which is Anies Baswedan. After he lost the presidential election, he proposed to run for governor of Jakarta, but he was not a candidate. Many citizens in Jakarta wanted him to be a candidate, which is why he is now very popular. I think this is because so many people admire him, but he was not proposed by any parties. I think people are angry or dissatisfied with this decision. I see him on television because nowadays he is invited to many activities in social media or television, like in the news or in podcasts.
