Jakarta – Presidential candidate number 3 Ganjar Pranowo offered three solutions to overcome conflicts plaguing the South China Sea.
These solutions namely; endorsing temporary agreements, solidifying Indonesian position, and optimizing the role of security apparatus.
"We have clear suggestions, including promoting temporary agreements with the aim of avoiding unwanted events," Ganjar said at Istora Senayan, Jakarta on Sunday.
He stated that various steps had been taken to resolve conflicts in the South China Sea, such as the formulation of the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea that paved the way for the arrangement of a code of conduct document.

However, Ganjar deemed such a measure as not instrumental for building mutual trust among conflicting countries.
He further expressed the belief that by pushing for temporary agreements, Indonesia would be able to play an even stronger role in resolving conflicts in the sea.
"The next suggestion is related to the need to strengthen our patrolling capacity in the South China Sea. To that end, we need to provide accessible logistics to the Indonesian Navy through tankers," Ganjar remarked.
The General Commission Election has determined Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar as presidential and vice presidential pair number 1, Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka as pair number 2, and Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud MD as pair number 3.
The themes for the third debate involve defense, security, international relations, globalization, geopolitics, and foreign policy.
