Directly From Airport To Rizal Ramli's Funeral Home, Luhut: I Have To See Him

Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan was also present to visit Rizal Ramli's funeral home in South Jakarta.

Luhut said he was sad after receiving news that Rizal Ramli had died and he even immediately came from the airport to the funeral home.

"Yes, I'm sad. I came from the airport and came here because I had to see him," he said at the funeral home, Wednesday, January 3.

Luhut said that he had spoken with Rizal Ramli's son and son-in-law. Rizal is a good friend of mine. Earlier I talked to his children saying, my father said yes, my good friend," he explained.

In addition, Luhut remembers the figure of Rizal Ramli during his lifetime as a good friend and often expressed a critical opinion. In fact, they often have different views.

"If it's different, it's different, but I try to respect Rizal in many ways. But Rizal has left, I say goodbye to Rizal. We all live here, so let's get excited too. So there's a difference here and there, there's no need for enemies," he said.

Luhut also said that even Rizal came to Luhut's wedding anniversary with his wife some time ago. In addition, he also quite well knows Rizal's wife, Herawati Moelyono.

"Wow, there are so many. Rizal used to go to Boston too, I'm also with a child with his wife Hera too well. I'm very close actually. I like it, I'm angry too, if Hera is his wife, this is a great man's wife. This is life," said Luhut.
