"In the direction, Ms. (Megawati) also mentioned how Mbah Maimoen, before performing the pilgrimage, met with Ms. Ketum a lot and also provided input on the cooperation of the political parties," Hasto told reporters at the PDIP DPP Party School, Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta. .

At that moment, continued Hasto, Mbah Moen entrusted Megawati with PPP to work together.
