Padang, W Sumatra (Antara Babel) - Volunteers and supporters of the Parabowo-Hatta presidential and vice presidential candidate duo are asked to work hard in order to bring victory to the pair in the upcoming July 9 presidential elections.

"In order to bring victory to the Prabwo-Hatta pair, all success teams and volunteers must do extra hard work," Prabowo-Hatta pair Spokesman Tantowi Yahya said here on Sunday.

He said that the success team's headquarters of Prabowo in Jakarta received support from the public every day for the Prabowo-Hatta presidential and vice presidential candidates.

The support proved that the Prabowo-Hatta pair won the public heart. "In order to win the sympathy of the public, the headquarters of Prabowo success teams will continue to popularize the candidates' vision and mission," Tantowi said.

Indonesia will organize a free and democratic presidential election on July 9, 2014, which will be contested by only two pairs of presidential and vice presidential candidates: Prabowo Subianto-Hatta Rajasa and Joko Widodo (Jokowi)-Jusuf Kalla.

Prabowo Subianto is a retired military general and the chairman of Gerindra (Great Indonesia Movement) Party, while his running mate, Hatta Rajasa, is a former coordinating minister for economic affairs and the chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN).

Jokowi is Jakarta's Governor and a cadre of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), and his running mate, Jusuf Kalla (JK), is a former vice president and a senior politician of the Golkar Party.

The Jokowi-JK pair is supported by five political parties: the Indonesia Democratic Party Struggle (PDIP), the Nation Awakening Party (PKB), the People's Conscience Party (Hanura), the Justice and Indonesian Unity Party (PKPI), and the National Democrats Party (Nasdem) established by Surya Paloh, who owns Metro TV and the Media Indonesia newspaper.

The Prabowo-Hatta pair is supported by Gerindra, PAN, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), the United Development Party (PPP), the Moon and Star Party (PBB), and the Golkar Party, whose current chairman is Aburizal Bakrie, the owner of TV One.
