JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of the Gerindra Party, Habiburokhman, asked the Governor of North Sumatra (Gubsu), Edy Rahmayadi, to apologize to the North Sumatran billiards coach for the Papua PON team, Choki Aritonang. Because he had twisted and kicked him out because he didn't join in the applause. According to him, Gubsu Edy's actions did not fit in an open event even though he said it was a 'dear jewer'.
"Maybe he means well but the method is not right," said Habiburokhman, to reporters, Wednesday, December 29.
The Deputy Chairperson of the House of Representatives' Honorary Court (MKD) reminded that a leader can be tough in the internal space, not in the open. Moreover, the coach who was hired was not Edy's direct subordinate.
"If it's in an internal and closed room, it's okay for us leaders to be strict with our subordinates in the context of education and training discipline. But that's in an open space, and also the billiards coach is not a direct employee, so it can't be treated like that," explained Habiburokhman.
Therefore, the member of Commission III of the DPR suggested that Gubsu Edy apologize to the billiards coach so that he would not feel hurt and humiliated.
"My advice is that he apologize, so that no one feels hurt and humiliated," said Habiburokhman. Previously, a video recording of the Governor of North Sumatra (Gubsu) Edy Rahmayadi twisting and expelling the North Sumatran billiards coach for the PON team in Papua, Khoirudin (Choki) Aritonang on Monday, December 27, went viral on social media.
In the scattered footage, it can be seen that Edy was giving a speech at the ceremony of handing over the affection to PON athletes at the Gubsu official residence, Medan. He then called one of the participants for not applauding, and called him up on stage.
Edy then asked the identity of the figure from the origin to his position in the contingent. Choki then replied that he was a coach.
"The coach did not applaud. Not suitable to be this coach," said Edy while pulling the billiards coach.
There was laughter in the audience. But a moment later the atmosphere was tense after Edy kicked the coach out of the room. Edy Rahmayadi asked the coach not to be in the room.
"You don't need to use it anymore. You get out right away. You don't have to be here," said Edy in the video recording.
