Head Of PKS DPP Says KSAD Dudung Continues To Be At The Forefront Of Struggling For The Interests Of Muslims

JAKARTA - Chairman of the DPP for the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) Mardani Ali Sera appreciated the services of the Army Chief of Staff (KSAD) General Dudung Abdurachman in struggling for the interests of Muslims.

"KSAD (Dudung Abdurachman) must continue to be at the forefront of protecting and fighting for the interests of Muslims," said Mardani in a written statement, quoted from Antara, Monday, June 6.

Mardani said this when responding to a question regarding General Dudung who built a mosque in the Sunan Gunung Jati Tomb Complex, Astana Village, Gunung Jati District, Cirebon Regency, West Java.

"It's good to build a mosque. Just make sure the mosque is alive. There are many congregations and regular recitations," said Mardani.

In addition, Mardani also appreciated General Dudung's step in holding the National MTQ. What General Dudung did, continued Mardani, was aimed at increasing the faith and piety of the TNI soldiers and the public.

Not only that, but Mardani also praised Dudung for having visited the Anwarut Taufiq Islamic Boarding School in Malang, East Java, and the Darullughah Wadda'wah Islamic Boarding School Foundation, Pasuruan, East Java.

"We appreciate the visit of the Army Chief of Staff to the Islamic Boarding School. It shows appreciation and concern for the School. It remains only to continue so that the school gets the full attention of the state," added the member of Commission II of the Indonesian House of Representatives.

Since Indonesia's population is predominantly Muslim, Mardani hopes that the interests of Muslims will continue to be fought for.

"Because if the majority of Muslims advance then Indonesia will also progress," said Mardani.
