Puan Mesra With Anies Watching Formula E, PDIP Secretary General: Especially Sitting While Drinking Ice Dawet

JAKARTA - The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) opens its voice about the 'intimacy' of DPR Speaker Puan Maharani with DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan while watching the Formula E race at the Jakarta International E Circuit (JIEC), Ancol, North Jakarta, Saturday, June 4 . PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto, said the meeting between national figures was a good thing. But for the affairs of the 2024 presidential election, he said, PDIP has not yet made a choice because the presidential candidate will be decided by General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri.

"Meeting is a good thing. Selfies are also good," said Hasto, Sunday, June 5. Hasto also responded to the positive assessment that Puan and Anies received when they appeared intimately in public. According to him, all parties must see the positive things as well. Hasto said, when the presidential and governor elections seemed to compete. But after that, all parties must support the winner.

"Although we also know that the support base of Pak Anies and PDIP is different. This is also from a different ideological framing. But sitting together is a good thing. Especially while drinking iced dawet is better," said Hasto. Hasto considered that the most important thing at this time was that all elements of the nation must be called out to see geopolitics for the progress of the nation.

"Don't end up doing things that are not substantial and then become a national issue. Meanwhile, what should be a national issue regarding our struggle to help Palestine, for example, doesn't have enough space in the public sphere," he concluded.
