Gerindra Responds To Fahri Hamzah's Issue Of Being Minister Of Housing

JAKARTA - The daily chairman of the Gerindra Party DPP, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, responded to an issue that said that the Deputy Chairperson of the Gelora Party, Fahri Hamzah, would be appointed as Minister of Housing in the upcoming government cabinet.

He explained that Fahri Hamzah was a member of the Elected Presidential Housing Task Force (Satgas) Prabowo Subianto, led by Hashim Djojohadikusumo as Head of the Housing Task Force.

"If I look at the media, Mr. Hashim said that Fahri Hamzah's job would be very difficult in housing because Mr. Fahri Hamzah was indeed a member of the Housing Task Force which was formed in the context of Pak Prabowo's campaign promise," Dasco said as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, October 11.

Meanwhile, the Deputy General Chairperson (Waketum) of the Golkar Party handed back the truth of the news to be confirmed directly to Hashim Djojohadikusumo.

"Maybe it can be asked by those who talk, maybe with Pak Hashim," said Adies at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta.

Previously, the Head of the Elected Presidential Housing Task Force Prabowo Subianto, Hashim Djojohadikusumo, mentioned Fahri Hamzah's name when explaining the housing program for the three million housing units launched by the upcoming government.

"I want to clarify, not three million (one government period). We want to build three million houses every year. Pak Fahri (Fahri Hamzah) and his colleagues will be difficult," said Hashim at the Property Executive Dialogue Real Estate Indonesia or REI event in Jakarta.

Fahri Hamzah reportedly moved to the Golkar Party after being revealed by the General Chairperson of the Golkar Party Bahlil Lahadalia in his statement during the inauguration of the PT Amman Mineral International smelter in West Sumbawa, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), Monday (23/9).

"Especially for national figures from NTB, Mr. Fahri Hamzah, try it first, sir, Mr. Fahri now plans to join the Golkar Party," said Bahlil.

"Earlier we had negotiated, that's why we came to Amman, the clothes were yellow-yellow," he said.
