JAKARTA – A demonstration demanding that Suharso Manoarfa resign from his position as General Chair of the United Development Party (PPP) in front of the PPP DPP office, Jalan Diponegoro, Menteng, Central Jakarta, ended in chaos, Friday, June 24.

The clashes were triggered by a mass oration from the Front Cadres to save the PPP Party, which was deemed to have insulted the chairman of the PPP Party. So that the masses in the PPP building area were provoked and heated up.

As a result, clashes between the two mass groups were unavoidable. Police officers who were on standby at the location immediately tried to break up the clashes between the two masses.

The chairman of the South Jakarta DPC Advisory Council, Muchbari, said that his party had come with a peaceful demonstration. However, he said, there are groups that always attack.

"For this time, how come we were confronted. I followed the police, I stayed there but they attacked. The demand is to enforce the constitution, the party's by-laws. If that can't be done, it's better if Suharsonya resigns," he said, Friday, June 24.

Muchbari regretted the clashes. Because he came to express his aspirations.

"I didn't cross the road but why did they attack? I love the party, I love the party, if you don't love my party, just clash, so I hold on, I don't want a clash," he said.

In order to anticipate further clashes, dozens of police personnel were alerted at the location for security.
