JAKARTA: The titular king of Surakarta, Mangkunegara X (pic), said on Monday (March 4) that despite his close ties with outgoing Surakarta leader Gibran Rakabuming Raka, the two had not yet discussed a possible plan for him to succeed President Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo's son as mayor.
The 26-year-old leader of the Mangkunegaran court made the statement in response to speculation that Gibran had given his blessing for the young king to run as mayor in the upcoming regional election.
