Just waiting for the time," said Anies when met in the Tanjung Priok area, North Jakarta, Friday, March 1.News that Megawati will meet JK was heard after the General Chairperson of the NasDem Party went to the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta and spoke privately with President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). It's just that, I don't know when the exact time will be.Meanwhile, PDIP politician Adian Napitupulu said the meeting between PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri and the 10th Vice President and 12 RI Jusuf Kalla would occur. He asked all parties to wait for the exact time."We'll hear about it, we'll follow it," Adian told reporters at the TKRPP office, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Friday, February 23."It has not been detailed by Adian about what will be discussed. “ It must have happened,” he said.On the one hand, Golkar politician Idrus Marham questioned the capacity of JK to meet Megawati. He said the meeting was unethical without the mandate of the General Chairperson of the Golkar Party, Airlangga Hartarto.It is known that Jusuf Kalla has been a member of the Golkar Party. However, he chose to support the number one pair, Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar (AMIN) in the 2024 presidential election.Meanwhile, the party bearing the banyan symbol became a supporter of pair number two, Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka."For example, if you meet as a national figure, I think it's a necessity. We encourage, said Idrus in the Menteng area, Central Jakarta, Thursday, February 29."But yesterday someone asked me, ‘ how about if JK meets on behalf of Golkar?’ I said in what capacity did JK meet on behalf of Golkar? In what capacity does JK speak on behalf of Golkar,” continued Secretary of the National Campaign Team (TKN) Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka.
Idrus stated that JK could not arbitrarily claim that he was a representative of the Golkar Party. “ Unless there is a mandate from the general chairman. If there is no mandate then it is very unethical, ” he said.
