PKB Gets 2 Seats For Chair And 9 Deputy Chairs Of The DPR Commission

The DPR's National Awakening Party (PKB) faction will receive two chair seats and 9 deputy chairmen in each commission in the DPR RI. The House of Representatives Council (AKD) of the Republic of Indonesia as well as the Deputy Chairperson of the PKB, Jazilul Fawaid said his party had appointed 11 cadres to lead the commission.

"Insyaallah PKB will send two chairmen and nine deputy chairmen, God willing, PKB will lead commission VIII, chairman of commission VIII and chairman of commission VI," Jazilul told reporters, Tuesday, October 22.

Jazilul then revealed the tasks that will be led by his cadres later. He said Commission VIII would oversee hajj matters, while Commission VI was responsible for trade.

"Commission VIII for Hajj, social affairs, commission VI for trade affairs and I forgot because of the number, which is clear trade," he explained.

Even though he has appointed a cadre, Jazilul is reluctant to reveal the figure who will lead several commissions in the DPR RI. He asked the public to be patient waiting for an official announcement at the plenary meeting which will take place this afternoon.

"Just wait, there are already two of them in PKB with a lot of stock," he said.

Previously, the Chairman of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Puan Maharani, said that her party had scheduled a plenary meeting to determine the number of commissions, board equipment (AKD) and the leaders and partners of each commission. The plenary meeting will be held today, Tuesday, October 22, afternoon.

The plenary agenda has been agreed upon by the leadership of the DPR along with 8 faction leaders in a meeting to replace Bamus at the Parliament Complex, Monday, October 21.

The determination of the ministry's partners for the 13 commissions in the DPR is in line with the announcement of the ranks of the Red and White cabinet by President Prabowo Subianto.

"After yesterday the Red and White cabinet was announced by President Prabowo, of course, we will complete partners from each commission and AKD so that later we will determine tomorrow (today) at the plenary meeting which will be held on Tuesday, noon," said Puan at the Senayan Parliament Complex, Jakarta, Monday, October 21.

Although there are two additional commissions and one agency, Puan emphasized that there are no additional buildings in the DPR RI. What is there, he said, is only the addition of the existing meeting room for Commission XII and Commission XIII of the DPR.

"There are no additional buildings, but rooms have been prepared, the available rooms will be occupied for commissions XII and XIII. So there are no additional buildings," said Puan.
