Author and Chairperson of the Turuntangan Movement M. Chozin Amirullah said the book entitled 'People's Words About Anies' comes from a sense of anxiety about the condition of the nation and country that we both love.
He assessed that the nation's increasingly chaotic condition made the people long for a leader who would provide shade, be pious and full of solidarity and protection, such as Anies Rasyid Baswedan, Ph.D.
"People are more honest in expressing their experiences. So this book is more open, honest and without any tendencies," said Chozin to KBA News, Friday, January 13, 2023.
He appreciated the people who were present at the book review as well as the launch of the book People's Words About Anies at Duren Tiga House, Pancoran, South Jakarta.
"Yes, yes, there are many who come and I think they get a lot of inspiration about the figure of Anies Baswedan," he said.
In addition, Chozin saw that the expressions of the people present were very different when they heard the explanation when collecting data from the victims of the previous governor's eviction. When Anies became Governor for the 2017-2022 period he gave the small community good attention, he said.
"I can see from his expression that they seem to get new things from the information they get," he added
"But this is from something new, because the perspective of the ordinary people about Mas Anies is written in this book and that maybe sometimes they may experience something themselves too, right? Or are they completely new, "he continued.
Chozin says it's hard to manage this book about time. Because of her and other writers, Ina Aie Tanamas has other activities. Meanwhile, regarding information or data, there is no difficulty.
"The difficulty may be about managing time because each of us is busy. So set the time for editing, writing, including pursuing sources," he said.
