JAKARTA - Member of the House of Representatives from the Golkar faction, Firman Soebagyo, released his DPR pin during a working meeting (raker) of Commission IV of the DPR RI with the Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KP) Sakti Wahyu Trenggono.

This attitude was taken because he felt ashamed as well as a form of protest because the polemic of the sea fence in the waters of Tangerang Regency, Banten, had not been resolved.

"I feel that if this meeting does not have a conclusion that provides answers to the people, I apologize, Sir (Sakti Wahyu Trenggono) not later, even now I will remove my badge first, I will release sir, shame as a representative of the people," said Firman in the House of Representatives Commission IV Meeting Room, Parliament Complex, Jakarta, Thursday, January 23.

He stressed that the length of the polemic of the sea fence made various accusations appear. The public has accused a scenario of the establishment of the sea fence.

"Because the problem is too late, the people accuse that there is a scenario for certain officials to protect this big project. What is wrong? This is serious, sir," he said.

In addition, said Firman, Trenggono did not show any seriousness in resolving the polemic of the sea fence before the direct direction from Prabowo.

"You do not show seriousness in this matter. Initially, Mr. Prabowo Subianto, the President we chose, has made a statement and ordered the Navy and the TNI Commander. Actually, it does not need to happen if you and the apparatus are aware of their duties and functions," explained Firman.

Firman also regretted Trenggono's attitude in not being able to dismantle the mastermind behind the installation of the sea fence in the Tangerang waters.

"If we speak honestly, the left-handed sir in our ears, this is from the people, sir, conveying the period, Mr. Sakti Wahyu Trenggono, who he said Sakti could not eradicate this. The pedicab driver has also asked about the mysterious fence in the middle of the sea. My driver asked me when the minister didn't know, "he said.

Furthermore, Firman hopes that Trenggono can firmly respond to the polemic of the sea fence. Moreover, President Prabowo Subianto's instructions to revoke and the DPR also supports Trenggono to investigate thoroughly.

"We are deployed to the field, the minister should also be equally enthusiastic. Don't let the minister slack off, I hope so," he said.

The mysterious 30.16-kilometer marine fence in Tangerang Regency, Banten, annexed the coastal areas of dozens of fishing villages in 6 sub-districts. This also makes it difficult for fishermen to find fish.

Until now, the existence of the sea fence still creates mystery and polemics.
