Acting Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama is feeling lonely after former Jakarta Governor Joko ‘Jokowi’ Widodo is inaugurated as Indonesia President for period of 2014-2019.

It’s quieter if (I) went down. There is no Jokowi makes (the City Hall) quiet

“It’s quieter if (I) went down. There is no Jokowi makes (the City Hall) quiet. If executive meeting, I usually come to the (Jokowi’s) room to report first, then go to the meeting room,” disclosed Basuki, at City Hall, Tuesday (10/21).

Besides the quiet condition, Basuki continued, another thing he feels now is that all tasks related to Jakarta Provincial Government become his responsibility. Like yesterday, Monday (10/20), he went home from City Hall at 9 PM.

“I guess today is still the same as yesterday. There are many disposition letters which have not been forwarded by Mr. Jokowi. He probably didn’t have time, so there are many incoming letters, including from the ministries. All of those letters must be forwarded to the City Secretary. If I wanted to go home earlier, the meeting schedules must be reduced,” he uttered.

Indeed, after Jokowi is inaugurated as Indonesia President on Monday (10/20), he is no longer working at the City Hall because his office is now at the State Palace. This makes the City Hall looks empty. When Jokowi was still a governor, the City Hall was already crowded by tens of people and cars parked at the yard in the morning. Now, it contradicts.
