Jakarta – Garda Pemuda, the youth wing of the National Democrat party, or NasDem, has thrown its support behind measures to ensure a mass protest held on Friday (04/11) takes place safely and peacefully.

Martin Manurung, chairman of Garda Pemuda, said President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo's comments guaranteeing the right of all people to make their voices heard should be applauded.

"We support the security personnel in conducting their duties professionally according to the president's instructions," Martin said in Jakarta on Monday (31/10).

"I instructed all members of Garda Pemuda NasDem in Indonesia to support and cooperate with regional leaders, security officials and related institutions to ensure the success of president's instruction."
