Tucked in the midst of thousands of wreaths for Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama and deputyDjarot Saiful Hidayat flooding the City Hall, a large bouquet of flowers put on Medan Merdeka Selatan road successfully stood out.

While most wreaths seen in and around the city hall in the past few days contain praises and supports for Ahok and Djarot, this4x2 meter-wreath contains different message.

The wreath, dominated by red and yellow, said Move On Donk Coy, which means Move on, guys and at the bottom, it said, Ayo dukung Oke Oce (Let's support Oke Oce) a featured program of Governor and DeputyGovernor-elect Anies Baswedan and Sandiaga Uno. At the bottom left, it contained a logo of Topas TV and jargon Pilihan Pas untuk Semua (the right choice for all).

Wheres the wreath come from? (It might be from an) intruder, murmured some visitors today.

The wreath was placed next to Block G Building of Jakarta City Hall. The building is located next to the governor's office.

At 10 a.m., the writings on the wreath had been torn by unknown perpetrators. The Ayo dukung Oke Oce writing has disappeared. Covering the Move On Donk Coy writing was a piece of plaid cloth with #MenolakMoveOn (refuse to move on) on it.
