JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of Commission VI of the House of Representatives Aria Bima responded to the issue of fake diplomas that again attacked President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).

"The accusation to the president with a fake diploma is the wong gendeng (crazy person)," said Aria Bima in Solo, Central Java, quoted from Antara, Thursday, October 13.

According to him, slanted accusations that seem to dislike certain parties will continue to be numerous, especially in the political era.

"I think the political year is people who want to be popular with many types. However, accusations against the President related to fake diplomas are wong gendeng (crazy people). How difficult it is to register Sipenmaru, DPR, so the regent, it is clear that there is something called passing administration, factual verification," he said.

To be able to pass the verification, said Aria Bima, there are many stages, ranging from checking basic education to tertiary education. Therefore, in fact such accusations do not need to be made.

He gave an example, having been a member of the DPR four times, it does not mean that he no longer misses verification, but rather verification is repeated according to existing procedures.

"Making a stir or because, he became a public gossip, so he was satisfied. Moreover, there were parties who underlined, invited to the podcast. He is a legal person again," he said.

In this regard, he requested that the party who made the accusation be immediately prosecuted.

"The person concerned is called, it violates the law. The ITE Law is kind and rather repressive. Indeed, conveying freedom is necessary, expressing opinions is important, but what is wary of democracy," he said.
