Zulhas Was Disappointed That The PAN Seat In The DPR Only Added 4 Seats

JAKARTA - Chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan or Zulhas brought up the acquisition of his party seat during the 2024 Legislative Election (Pileg). Zulhas admitted that he was disappointed because the PAN seat only increased by 4 seats from 44 to 48 seats.

"Everything is the result of the hard work of the brothers and sisters. We are grateful, we have increased our seats from 44 to 48," said Zulhas in his remarks at the PAN National Working Meeting at the PAN DPP Office, South Jakarta, Saturday, June 29.

This disappointment, said Zulhas, was because the acquisition of 48 seats was still far from the target and it was estimated that around 55 to 60 seats in the 2024 Pileg. However, Zulhas was still grateful that PAN again qualified for Parliament with the addition of 4 seats.

"Indeed, at first I was disappointed, but not for long, two days. Because in my mind it was two years without us working, the last two years were photographed by PAN, the seats were between 55-60. Not imaginary, but indeed the calculation in my opinion is real between 55-60 (curses). But what we have achieved is 48," he said.

"Two days of disappointment, but we are grateful for that, add four seats," continued Zulhas.

According to Zulhas, the acquisition of 48 seats was an extraordinary gift for his party. He also invited all his cadres to be grateful because the match in the 2024 Legislative Election was not easy.

"That's what we have to be grateful for in the midst of yesterday's very tight, hard and limitations that we have. Because yesterday's match, we really don't need to be detailed anymore because it's over, it's not easy," concluded Zulhas.
