Asked Sowan To Around The DKI DPRD Faction, Acting Governor Heru: Being Scheduled

JAKARTA - Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono admitted that he would fulfill the wishes of members of the DKI DPRD so that he would go around the factions to stay in touch.

Regarding the time, Heru said that the meeting schedule was being adjusted by the Secretary of the DKI Jakarta DPRD.

"It is being scheduled for the Secretary of State. When will it start? If I start as soon as possible before the 15th (December), I will," said Heru in East Jakarta, Wednesday, December 7.

Heru admitted that he did not know the exact date of his meeting with the Kebon Sirih parliament. This is because a number of council members are currently on a working visit.

"There are several DPRD members who are carrying out their duties outside the city. What is certain is that I will go around," said Heru.

Previously, the chairman of the Golkar faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Basri Baco, asked Heru to go to every faction room in the DKI DPRD. This was revealed in the interruption of the plenary meeting some time ago.

"We miss it, I feel, for the governor to visit the rooms of our respective factions in the DPRD," said Baco at the DKI Jakarta DPRD building, Tuesday, November 29.

This request was conveyed by Baco because Heru was a regional leader who was not elected from a handful of parties in the general election.

Before being elected as Acting Governor of DKI, Heru's name was included in the proposal of all party factions in the DKI Jakarta DPRD to be handed over to President Joko Widodo.

"I quote the words of the Chairman of the Council (Chairman of the DKI DPRD, Prasetyo Edi Marsudi) who I really respect, that today's governor is the governor of nine factions," he said.

Baco hopes that Heru can visit all factions of the Jakarta parliament before mid-December. This is because these factions are said to want to talk directly with Heru.

There are 9 factions of the Jakarta DPRD, namely PDIP, Gerindra, PKS, Democrats, Golkar, PSI, NasDem, PAN, and PKB-PPP.

"We hope that before December 15, that longing can be done. So, we can follow the new year with no obstacles from one and another," said Baco.
