JAKARTA - Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi stated that his party was planning a meeting between President Prabowo Subianto and the 5th President of the Republic of Indonesia who is also the General Chair of the PDI-P (PDIP) Megawati Soekarnoputri.

This was in response to Megawati's speech which again mentioned that President Prabowo Subianto asked her to cook fried rice.

"That's right," said Prasetyo while agreeing to Megawati's speech that alluded to President Prabowo missed making fried rice, when giving a press statement at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta, Friday, May 9, reported by ANTARA.

Prasetyo responded to that the meeting of the two general chairmen had actually been held on April 7, 2025 when President Prabowo visited Megawati's residence on Jalan Teuku Umar, Central Jakarta.

The meeting was the first meeting since Prabowo Subianto won the 2024 Presidential Election with his partner, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, or after the last meeting of Prabowo-Megawati in October 2023.

"It's been two and a half years, but yesterday, thank God he met the two of them," said Prasetyo.

However, Prasetyo admitted that he would rearrange his second meeting, especially after Megawati's speech that offended President Prabowo, who missed the fried rice made by the daughter of the First President of the Republic of Indonesia.

"It's being arranged, just calm down," said Prasetyo.

Megawati again brought up the moment she cooked fried rice for Prabowo. The moment was known to have occurred when Prabowo visited Megawati's residence on Jalan Teuku Umar, Central Jakarta, on July 24, 2019.

Previously, Megawati emphasized that she was not hostile to President Prabowo Subianto. This was conveyed by Megawati in her political speech during the PDIP 52nd Anniversary at the Party School, Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta, on Friday, January 10, 2025.

"Media thinks that Pak Prabowo and I are enemies or not, (yes) or not," said Megawati.
