JAKARTA - Member of the House of Representatives from the PDIP faction, Trimedya Panjaitan, was furious to see the behavior of Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo, who was considered ambitious in wanting to "run" in the 2024 presidential election. The bull party politician then questioned Ganjar's performance during his tenure as Governor of Central Java. The reason is, according to Trimedya, so far Ganjar has been diligent in surfing social media.

"What's his performance as a governor for 8 years apart from being active on social media, what's his performance?," Trimedya told reporters, Wednesday, June 1.

According to Trimedya, compared to Ganjar, the track record of DPR Chair Puan Maharani is clearly visible, starting from the Chair of the PDIP Faction in the DPR, to becoming the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture. Puan, said Trimedya, even managed to coordinate 7 ministries and her performance was good. Even when she was the Chair of the DPR, Puan was judged to be able to lead the best cadres of political parties at the leadership level.

"Please describe Ganjar's track record in the DPR! As governor, complete the Wadas! Complete the Rob! How many roads have been built. Then poverty in Central Java has actually increased, please people also apple to apple compare!” Trimedya said.

Trimedya assessed that Ganjar's move to maneuver to run for president in 2024 had gone too far. In fact, he said, in Javanese terms, it can be called kemlinthi or pretentious, maniac, arrogant.

"If the Javanese say Kemlinthi, yes, he is kemlinthi, he should have been patient first when he carried out his duties as governor of Central Java, he should interact with structural friends there, DPD, DPC, Provincial DPRD, City Regency DPRD, that's it," explained Trimedya.

The Deputy Chairperson of the DPR MKD also highlighted Ganjar's steps, which were too obvious to display political lust. According to Trimedya, this can be seen from his recent safaris to various regions in Indonesia. To note, Ganjar is active around Indonesia from North Sumatra to South Sulawesi.

"This all seems to be playing, where are all the roads from Medan to Makassar, so we just laughed at the Papua PON when someone shouted Ganjar, Ganjar. Who are the Papuans who know Ganjar? It looks right by design (it has been arranged, ed), especially for people who understand politics," said the legislator for the North Sumatra II electoral district.

Trimedya added that Ganjar, as one of the older cadres, should understand the character of PDIP and General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri.

"For me as a PDI-P cadre, Ganjar doesn't respect Mother (Megawati, ed)," he concluded.
