Pramono expressed gratitude to both his fellow candidates, Ridwan Kamil-Suswono and Dharma Pongrekun-Kun Wardana, for conducting a peaceful and smooth election. He specifically appreciated the calm conduct of the election, stating that there were no extraordinary incidents.
In a meeting with KH Muhyidin Ishaq of the Jakarta chapter of the Nahdlatul Ulama (PWNU) in Gandaria, South Jakarta, Pramono promised not to waste the programs put forward by Ridwan Kamil and Dharma during their campaign. He assured that several initiatives, including the provision of free breakfast and free internet for Jakarta residents, would be continued.
While he did not give a definitive answer regarding riverways to ease Jakarta’s traffic congestion or affordable housing units above markets and stations (as proposed by RK-Suswono), Pramono mentioned that his focus would be on improving the TransJakarta bus system.
