JAKARTA - Chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN) Zulkifli Hasan reported his party's plan to hold a National Working Meeting (Rakernas) to be held in Jakarta, August 27, to President Joko Widodo.

"As the general chairman of the party, I also report that we (PAN) will hold a National Working Meeting on the 27th, the day after tomorrow," Zulkifli Hasan told reporters after meeting the President at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta, reported by ANTARA, Thursday, August 25.

The agenda for the National Working Meeting of PAN was conveyed by Zulkifli to Jokowi after he, as the Minister of Trade, reported to the President regarding the main agenda of the meeting, namely reporting on the stock and prices of various commodities such as cooking oil, eggs and others.

He conveyed that in the PAN National Working Meeting which will be held on August 27, 2022, representatives of PAN management in the regions will propose the names of presidential candidates to be carried by PAN.

"Later on in the National Working Meeting, it will be accommodated, but it has not been decided. Later there will be (Presidential candidates) from the provincial governor, the governor cluster. There is also someone who proposes a cluster leadership of the KIB political party for example. Ministers are also proposed. I also reported earlier," he explained.

Zulkifli also asked Jokowi's willingness to convey directions through the online recording of the National Working Meeting.

"Because if (the President is present) directly, that's the event, when the President listens to another speech, it's not right, I ask (the President's willingness) to be recorded later," he said.
