President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo (second left) and running mate Ma\'ruf Amin (left) share a light moment with Gerindra Party chairman Prabowo Subianto (second right), who is running for president with Sandiaga Uno (right) as his vice-presidential pick, at a pledge for a "peaceful campaign" held at the National Monument (Monas) in Central Jakarta on Sunday (23/9/2018). The Declaration aims to combat hoaxes, hate speech and ethnic, religious, racial and societal group (SARA) sentiments to create a peaceful atmosphere for the 2019 presidential election.

A peaceful campaign declaration on Sept. 23, 2018, was a bit marred by an incident involving members of the political elite. Many are concerned that a peaceful campaign will result in nothing more than empty jargon.

Democratic Party chair Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono walked out from the declaration, reportedly in protest of the General Elections Commission (KPU) over several things he perceived as violating the rules of the declaration. That was Yudhoyono’s criticism toward the KPU, which has refuted the claims.
