JAKARTA, Oct 14 — The vast volunteer network of outgoing Indonesian President Joko Widodo today endorsed retired general Prabowo Subianto for president in February’s election.
The endorsement from the “Projo” network, seen as a proxy for the president, is the strongest signal yet that the incumbent will back his former rival in the closely contested race.

Jokowi, as the president is known, has not yet officially endorsed any candidate.
While Jokowi does not lead a party of his own, he has an informal following of millions of volunteers who are active on social media and who promote his policies and presidency, especially ahead of elections.
The Projo network helped to propel him to victory against Prabowo in the 2014 and 2019 presidential elections. — Reuters
