In the lead-up to the 2024 Presidential Election, the backing for Anies Rasyid Baswedan and Abdul Muhaimin Iskandar, also known as Cak Imin or Gus Imin (AMIN), has extended beyond the borders of Indonesia, reaching various countries. In a manner akin to the event held in Melbourne, Australia, the Declaration of the AMIN Volunteer Team took place on Tuesday, December 26, 2023, at the Madura Kitchen in London, England.
The gathering served as a congregation for supporters of Anies and Cak Imin, marking the official declaration of the AMIN Candidate Volunteer Team in England, solidifying their endorsement for AMIN in the 2024 Presidential Election. Esteemed speaker Imam Shamsi Ali, a religious figure and interfaith activist from New York City, USA, was in attendance and engaged in meaningful discussions with the Muslim community in London.
The occasion also encompassed the announcement of the campaign team and a religious lecture, aimed at inspiring AMIN’s supporters in England. Over 50 representatives from various cities in England were in attendance, representing four well-organized volunteer groups. Furthermore, representatives from the supporting party PKS in the United Kingdom were also present.
Ummi Arfah, the Coordinator of the combined Volunteer Team, conveyed the immense enthusiasm of the volunteers, despite the impromptu nature of the event resulting from the unexpected arrival of Ustadz Shamsi Ali. More than 60 individuals registered overnight, but due to spatial constraints, the number of participants was capped at 50.
The fervour and backing exhibited by Indonesian citizens residing abroad is a testament to their affection for their homeland. Furthermore, the trust in the abilities and integrity of the candidate they support instills fresh hope for the nation. Imam Shamsi Ali underscored the significance of genuine intentions in the endeavour to ensure AMIN’s triumph, portraying it as a gesture of devotion to Allah SWT through the nation and the country.
The triumph of the event highlights the global reach of Indonesia’s political landscape and the staunch support for the Anies-Cak Imin ticket. The demonstration of unity and commitment from Indonesian nationals in the United Kingdom reflects their steadfast dedication to shaping the future of their homeland.
In summary, the event in London epitomizes the profound impact of the forthcoming Presidential Election in Indonesia, as national support transcends geographical boundaries. The participation of prominent figures and the involvement of the Indonesian community in the UK stand as a testament to the significance of the political landscape in shaping the country’s future.
