S

inger Ari Lasso acknowledged that, during the massive floods that have inundated the capital, newly appointed Jakarta Governor Joko Widodo, widely known as Jokowi, was the one who surely had the worst headache.

“He must have a lot of things on his mind right now. I just hope that he won’t be done in by handling this calamity, hand-in-hand with the people,” he said as quoted by kapanlagi.com.

Ari, former vocalist with well-known rock band Dewa, also extended his condolences to families of those who had lost their lives during the floods.

When asked about his own experience during the floods, he admitted that he had faced some difficulties trying to find the right roads when traveling in the city during the past few days. But, he added that he had to deal with that and continue with his business.
