MKD Bamsoet's Decision Proven Langgar Code Of Ethics Called Salah Address
JAKARTA - Chairman of the Democratic Party faction of the MPR RI Benny K. Harman also responded to the decision of the Honorary Court of the DPR RI, which was given to the Chairman of the MPR RI Bambang Soesatyo (Bamsoet).
"The decision was the wrong address. Bamsoet is the chairman of the MPR, not the chairman of the DPR. He spoke in his capacity as Chairman of the MPR RI," he said in a written statement quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, June 26.
Benny saw that the substance of the discussion between the Chairman of the MPR was still within the limits of appropriateness. He continued, Bamsoet stated that he traveled around to meet the public and the public elite. He said, Bamsoet captured the spirit of wanting to return to the 1945 Constitution, in response to the turmoil and unrest that arose after the election and the presidential election.
Benny said, as long as what Bamsoet said was really from political leaders and elites, and conveyed it to the public, it was still within reasonable limits and there was nothing to worry about.
He said, what Bamsoet said about returning to the 1945 Constitution and the fifth amendment was indeed a matter discussed in the MPR. Moreover, after Bamsoet toured the leaders of political parties.
"So, there's nothing to be afraid of, because it's still in a reasonable stage," he said.
He continued, the Chairperson of the MPR only conveyed an open message for debate, discussed and discussed. As Chairman of the Democratic Faction at the MPR RI, Benny really appreciates that kind of view that really needs to be discussed.
Once again, Benny emphasized that he did not find the code of ethics violated by the Chairman of the MPR. Even if there is a violation of the code of ethics, the violation committed by the Chairman of the MPR cannot be brought to the DPR MKD. It concerns absolute competence.
