"Plan in Menteng Pulo, stacked (one grave) in the grave of the father who died in 81 (1981)," he said at the funeral home, Thursday, September 5.

Ramdan said the family would still wait for Faisal Basri's eldest son who was on his way from Bangkok, Thailand, to Jakarta.

"It's flat, because each of them is waiting for their eldest from Bangkok. Maybe around 12 o'clock they just arrived, their eldest child," he explained.

Previously, Senior Economist Indef Tauhid Ahmad said that the late Faisal Basri had a heart attack two days ago and was hospitalized.

This information was obtained from the daughter of the late Faisal Basri.

"Her daughter came to the office, and just informed me and some friends, we got information that she had a heart attack two days ago, and was hospitalized, but maybe God willed something else," he explained at the funeral home, Thursday, September 5.

So that when he works in the office he doesn't forget to bring medicine and so on and take good care of the food.

"Yes, he may also be because of cigarettes, he is happy, because he thinks, and likes to discuss in open spaces, relaxes, with colleagues and we are juniors," he said.
