Dasco Surprised Hasto Umbar Internal PDIP Issues To The Public About Jokowi's Issues Taking Over Chairman Chair
JAKARTA - The daily chairman of the Gerindra Party DPP, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, was surprised by the attitude of PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto who raised PDIP's internal problems to the public regarding the issue that President Joko Widodo wanted to take over the chair of the general chairman.According to Dasco, although the issue is true, it should not be announced to the public."I am also surprised by such issues, because actually it is an internal problem for political parties that should be discussed internally, and then it is not exposed to the public," said Dasco at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Thursday, April 4.However, Dasco did not want to interfere with the problems in PDIP. He only hopes that every political party in Indonesia can make a leadership transition according to the mechanism regulated in the articles of association and household budget (AD/ART) of their respective political parties."But whatever it is, we hope that all political parties in Indonesia are fine in making leadership transitions with the mechanisms that have been regulated in the AD/ART of each political party," said the Deputy Speaker of the DPR.Previously, PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto, revealed that President Jokowi had tried to ask Megawati Soekarnoputri to hand over the seat of the PDIP chairman.Hasto said that at that time Jokowi assigned one of his trusted ministers to contact the IPDN professor, Ryaas Rasyid, to persuade Megawati."There is a minister, there is a super powerful, some are powerful. So that I don't get it wrong, this is assigned to meet Ryaas Rasyid by President Jokowi," said Hasto in a discussion in the Menteng area, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, March 2.Hasto said that Ryaas Rasyid was assigned to persuade Megawati so that the PDIP leadership would be handed over to Jokowi. The reason, said Hasto, is that Jokowi wants to have a long-term political vehicle.
"Mr. Ryaas Rasyid was assigned to persuade Mrs. Mega, so that the PDIP leadership would be handed over to Mr. Jokowi. So in the context of political vehicles for the next 21 years," he explained.
