AMPONTOONS.COM, JAKARTA – Hurricane, the former Kerispatih, just joined the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) this year and plans to become a legislative candidate next year.

After joining PSI, Storm, whose full name is Doadibadai Hollo alias Storm, said that Giring Ganesha who is also a musician is a good example for him.

β€œTo be honest, Giring is a good example for me because I say Giring is a good example,” Storm said when meeting in Kuningan area, South Jakarta on Thursday (5/11/2023).

The ex-Kerispatih keyboardist never thought that Giring, who had his characteristics in appearance and stage action when he was still in Nidji, has now become the general president.

β€œI used to tour with Nidji and I didn’t expect he was now the general chairman of the party, because what I saw was a frivolous person with a distinctive rocking neon, he is now the general chairman,” Storm said.

Not only that, Storm was also impressed by a Giring’s political literacy. He felt that he would not be able to be like Giring if he served as general president.

“So his literacy in politics, in my opinion, is very good now, Giring’s energy is very good because he’s from Aceh and everywhere he proves it. If I become party chairman, that’s not necessarily the case,” Storm said.

According to him, Giring can be used as an example of a musician who dares to move from the world of music to the world of politics.
