Please note, Tia Rahmania is the elected DPR RI candidate from PDIP. In the 2024 Legislative Election, Tia ran as a legislative candidate in the Electoral Region (Dapil) of Banten I and managed to reap 36,516 votes. This achievement made Tia ranked first in the electoral district.

However, Tia Rahmania's dream to be inaugurated as a member of the Indonesian House of Representatives for the period 2024-2029 on October 1, 2024, ran aground because she was fired by PDIP suddenly.

Tia Rahmania's dismissal is contained in the General Election Commission (KPU) Decree Number 1368 of 2024 concerning the Fourth Amendment to KPU Decree Number 1206 of 2024 concerning the Determination of Candidates for Elected Members of the DPR Ri in the 2024 General Election.

In the decree, Tia was replaced with the reason that she had been fired as a member of the PDI-P.

"Tia Rahmania no longer meets the requirements to become a member of the DPR because the person concerned has been dismissed from a party member," reads the KPU's decision.

So, what is the figure of Tia Rahmania? Summarized from various sources, here is the full information.

Tia Rahmania, who was canceled as a member of the Indonesian House of Representatives, was born in Palangkaraya City, Central Kalimantan, on March 30, 1979.

Besides being known as a PDIP politician, Tia is a psychologist and Chairperson of the Banten Young Banteng Indonesia (BMI) Regional Representative Council (DPD) Banten.

Just so you know, BMI is a PDIP wing organization that was formed on March 29, 2000 in Semarang, Central Java.

Before being active in the world of politics, Tia was once the Dean of the Faculty of Falsafah and Civilization and lecturer of the Paramadina University Psychology Study Program.

In addition, Tia has also been a member of the Private Islamic Religious Universities Association (APTIKIS) for the 2020-2023 period. She is also one of the administrators of the Banten Province KONI for 2022-2025. Tia is also the deputy chairman of the PDI-P DPD Banten Province, for Creative Economy for the 2020-2024 Period.

Based on her personal LinkedIn account, Tia is a graduate of the University of Indonesia, Faculty of Psychology for the Master's degree in Psychology, Development and Children. While her bachelor's degree is also obtained from the University of Indonesia with the same major.

Tia's career in politics began when she joined PDIP in 2019. At that time, she ran as a legislative candidate for the DPR for the Banten I electoral district and managed to get more than 30,000 votes.

However, these results have not been able to deliver Tia to Senayan because she lost to Mochamad Hasbi Asyidiki Jayabaya, who earned more than 40,000 votes.

In the 2024 Legislative Election, Tia Rahmania again ran for member of the Indonesian House of Representatives through the same electoral district. As a result, it was quite surprising, he succeeded in shifting Mochamad Hasbi Asyidiki Jayabaya, who had served as a member of the DPR for two terms since 2014.

Not only that, but Tia also managed to beatten Triyana, a historian who got serial number 1 in the 2024 Legislative Election.

Despite winning the most votes, Tia Rahmania was not inaugurated as a member of the DPR because she was fired suddenly by PDIP because it was considered a vote.

Before Tia Rahmania was fired by PDIP, she had criticized the Deputy Chairperson of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Nurul Ghufron about integrity at the National Values Establishment Forum for Members of the DPR for the 2024-2029 period.

The criticism was delivered when Ghufron discussed the issue of corruption and its impact on the country's goals.

When Ghufron delivered the material, Tia interrupted who claimed to be dizzy by the statement of the KPK officials.

According to Tia, Ghufron as not talking about integrity because he himself committed an ethical violation at the KPK.

"Dear Mr. Nurul Ghufron, rather than talking about theories like this, we all know that Sir, this country is not doing well. It's better if you talk about your case, how can you pass the council of Ethics," Tia said in a broadcast of the program broadcast on Lemhanas' YouTube channel, quoted by VOI.

"Then the PTUN was successful, how did your case provide recommendations to ASN? How were your other cases, you could pass?" continued Tia.

Next, Tia also urged the event committee to look for more credible speakers.

"Sorry sir, sir, you are not our product. Corruption is essentially ethics and morals, sir. I am one of the anti-corruption lecturers, sir. Permission, sir, thank you for Mr. Ghufron himself for opening it," said Tia.
