JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the Gerindra Party Board of Trustees, Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno was present at the inauguration of the Gerindra-PKB Joint Secretariat (Sekber) on Jalan Mangunsarkoro, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Monday, January 23. Sandiaga was present wearing the Gerindra party uniform, long-sleeved white shirt and wearing a cap at around 10.00 WIB. Interestingly, Sandiaga was seen being intimate again with the Daily Chairperson of the Gerindra Party DPP Sufmi Dasco Ahmad who had heated up after the issue of Menparekraf joining the United Development Party (PPP). In fact, at that moment, Sandiaga had time to salute Dasco, who had arrived first. Both of them shook hands and were greeted by applause from other Gerindra cadres. Dasco then admitted that Sandiaga's presence at the inauguration of the Sekber held that he was still part of the Gerindra Party family.

"This means Mr. Sandiaga is still a Gerindra resident," said Dasco with a laugh. Previously, Dasco was annoyed with Sandiaga who was rumored to have joined PPP. In fact, after a meeting with Gerindra Chairman Prabowo Subianto, the Deputy Speaker of the DPR admitted that he could not guarantee Sandiaga would continue with Gerindra. Moreover, winning Prabowo in the 2024 presidential election. According to him, only Sandiaga knows.

"I conveyed what he said to Pak Prabowo. If it guarantees that he will remain, yes I can't guarantee it. Just ask Mas Sandi," said Dasco, Friday, January 13.

Therefore, Dasco said he would oversee what Sandiaga conveyed to Prabowo whether it was the same as his actions in the future or not. Because, he admitted that he heard directly the news of Sandiaga joining the Kaaba Party from his colleagues in the PPP faction. "It's not that I heard from PPP, it's just like that. From the PPP faction here," he said. "So we can see together, (but) God willing, what was conveyed was done," added Dasco.
