JAKARTA - Member of the DPR from the PKS Faction, Fahmi Alaydroes, apologized to the PDI-P (PDIP) after insulting DPR Speaker Puan Maharani at a plenary meeting today, Monday, November 8. Fahmi admitted, the satire just flowed.

"It just flows," said Fahmi when giving a clarification at the PKS faction of the DPR, Monday, November 8.

The member of Commission X of the House of Representatives said that he deliberately made an interruption in today's single plenary meeting. Because, he said, the rights that will be conveyed at the interruption are related to the resilience of the state.

"The plan I want to convey has been conveyed and deliberately at the current plenary moment because it is closely related to the endorsement of the commander in chief, as I said earlier," explained Fahmi.

"That's an inseparable part of the resilience of our country, I want to compare it with the moral resilience of the nation, but that opportunity just isn't allowed, so I submit a protest like what my friends have said," he continued.

However, the Bogor constituency legislator explained that he had apologized to PDIP regarding this issue. The reason is that the head of the PDIP faction, Utut Adianto, approached Fahmi after making fun of Puan.

"This has been completed earlier, my PDIP friends have also apologized but this is a big lesson, especially for the leadership of the DPR, to respect and guarantee my constitution as a member of the DPR," said Fahmi.

Previously, Fahmi, who sits on Commission X of the DPR, asked for an interruption when Puan Maharani closed a single plenary meeting to make a decision on the results of the fit and proper test for the candidate for the TNI Commander General Andika Perkasa.

"The leader's interruption. The leader of the interruption," said Fahmi.

However, repeatedly stating the request for interruption, Puan, who is also the Chairperson of the PDIP DPP, continued to speak until she knocked on the hammer to mark the end of the plenary meeting.

"My leader asked for time, the leader asked me for time. My leader is A432," said Fahmi again.

Not being heeded until the plenary is over, Fahmi looks annoyed. He then quipped Puan by mentioning the issue of the presidential election. "How about a presidential candidate, our constitutional rights are closed," said Fahmi.

The chairman of the PDIP faction, Utut Adianto, then reacted to Fahmi's statement.

"Those who preside over the trial have the right to accept the interruption or not, earlier they said that the agenda was single, namely the issue of the Commission I report regarding the TNI Commander.
