Following a visit to the Kartini Museum in Jepara, Central Java, the\nfifth day of the NasDem Party\u2019s Ramadan Safari continued in East Java.\nThe agenda focused on consolidating support with the East Java DPW\n(Regional Executive Board) of the NasDem Party, specifically in the 9th\n(Bojonegoro and Tuban) and 10th (Lamongan and Gresik) electoral\ndistricts.<\/p>\n
During the consolidation forum, Deputy Chairman of the NasDem Party\u2019s\nDPP (Central Executive Board), Saan Mustopa, stated that since its\ninception, East Java has been one of NasDem\u2019s main strongholds, both at\nthe provincial level and throughout Java.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom the beginning, East Java was one of our main strengths. Its\nacceptance rate was even higher than in other provinces in Java. We need\nto restore that,\u201d Saan said in a statement on Thursday (February 26,\n2026).<\/p>\n
Saan explained that the Ramadan Safari is not just a series of\nfriendly visits, but part of a strategy to strengthen regions that have\nhistorically been strongholds for the party. He openly expressed his\ndesire to ensure that all electoral districts in Java are represented in\nthe 2029 elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have the will and determination, together with the party officials\nwho are participating in this Ramadan Safari, that in 2029 all electoral\ndistricts in Java must be represented. That is not an easy target, and\nit certainly requires sacrifice,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n
He affirmed that the only way to achieve this goal is through\nsystematic hard work. The first and most important step is to build a\nstrong party structure.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo party can be strong and ready to win if its structure is not\nwell-built. We can do many things, but if the structure is weak,\ndisorganized, and poorly managed, then everything will be difficult \u2013\neven impossible,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Saan believes that the structure is not just a list of officials, but\na political machine that must be active and working. Without a\nwell-organized and robust organizational foundation, victory will only\nbe a dream.<\/p>\n
Visit to the Tomb of Sunan Giri<\/strong><\/p>\n After the consolidation, the Ramadan Safari agenda concluded with a\nvisit to the tomb of Sunan Giri together with local DPW (Regional\nExecutive Board) and DPD (Regional Branch Board) officials. This visit\nis part of the tradition of the Ramadan Safari, which combines\norganizational consolidation with reflection on the values of the\nstruggle.<\/p>\n Saan said that the historical legacy left by religious leaders is not\njust a heritage of the past, but a space for contemplation to\nre-evaluate the direction of the struggle.<\/p>\n \u201cThis visit is a reminder that their struggle in spreading Islam in\nIndonesia is also a prayer for them,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n Amidst the increasingly competitive political dynamics, Saan said\nthat the Ramadan Safari in East Java combines two things: strengthening\nthe structure as a foundation for victory, and reflecting on history as\na guide for the struggle.<\/p>\n For NasDem, the path to 2029 is not just about electoral strategy,\nbut also about maintaining the spirit and awareness that political\nstrength must be based on a healthy organization and good\nintentions.<\/p>\n As information, the consolidation activities took place in Bojonegoro\nand Gresik on Wednesday (February 25, 2026). After the consolidation of\nthe 9th district and a joint iftar (breaking of the fast) in Bojonegoro,\nthe activities continued with the consolidation of the 10th district at\nthe NasDem Party\u2019s DPD in Gresik.<\/p>\n The meeting involved local community leaders and religious figures,\nas part of an effort to expand social networks and strengthen the\nparty\u2019s roots at the local level.<\/p>\n (anl\/ega)<\/p>",
