Join Jokowi's Government, PAN Affirms Young Politicians
JAKARTA - The National Mandate Party (PAN) has finally officially joined the government coalition to support the Presidency of Joko Widodo (Jokowi) for the 2019-2024 period.
This certainty was revealed after PAN Chairman Zulkifli Hasan joined a group of coalition political party leaders to visit Jokowi at the Presidential Palace complex, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, August 25.
PAN seems to immediately step on the gas targeting young people so that they can work and devote themselves through political channels.
Spokesperson for the Youth for the National Mandate Party, Aliah Lestari Sayuti, said that by providing affirmative policies on the role and existence of young people in politics, it would bring new energy to the party system. Especially PAN as a modern party. That's why in PAN many young people are active," said Aliah to reporters on Wednesday, August 25, evening.
According to him, PAN has provided concrete evidence for concern for young people. Moreover, said Aliah, many members of the DPR RI and DPRD PAN come from young people, even the DPP administrators.
"We young people really have their voices heard as representatives of young people and are given the trust to act in the party," he continued. This youth is not about the red or blue carpet. The basis is still competence, achievement, and professionalism. Not based on privilege based on lineage or social status," he said
