SBY Supports The Presidential Club, Ready To Sit With Megawati

JAKARTA - Deputy of Bappilu DPP Democrat Party, Kamhar Lakumani emphasized that the 6th President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) fully supports the idea of the presidential club as a forum to bring together former presidents.

According to Kamhar, SBY is even ready to sit in the same shirt as the 5th President Megawati Soekarnoputri at the presidential club forum.

"For the interests of the people, nation and state, Pak SBY has no problem sitting at the same table with anyone, especially with Mrs. Megawati, the president of his predecessor. They are statesmen who will always place the interests of the people, nation and state as the main and priority," he said in Jakarta, Tuesday, May 7.

Kamhar also emphasized that the Democratic Party welcomed Prabowo Subianto's plan to form a presidential club.

According to Kamhar, the presidential club will enrich Prabowo-Gibran's perspective in formulating more appropriate and optimal policies.

"This thought has been repeatedly presented by Prabowo, which is based on the idea that the nation's best figures who have held the mandate of the people as president can continue to dedicate themselves and serve in the form of thoughts and share experiences with the president who is in office. Of course, this will further enrich the perspective so that it is hoped that the policies formulated and taken can be more appropriate and optimal in benefits," he explained.

In addition, said Kamhar, the presidential club is also expected to provide a shady and harmonious atmosphere in society. According to him, the community can be harmonious if leaders can intensely interact in the context of being national and statesman figures.

"This will have a positive effect on the people watching their leaders get along well and get along well, leave their colors red and white and put aside various interpersonal sentiments for the sake of the people, nation and state," he concluded.
