Presidential Chief of Staff Dr. Moeldoko admitted that he had faced the media. This situation occurred in the first month of his tenure as Presidential Chief of Staff.

"In the first three months at KSP, I had a chance to face the media. Because everything was asked by journalists. But now I am proficient," said Moeldoko in front of the administrators of the DKI Jakarta Indonesian Journalists Association (PWI), at the Bina Graha building, Jakarta, Monday, February 13.

For information, the DKI Jakarta PWI management held an audience with the Presidential Chief of Staff Dr. Moeldoko. Their arrival aims to synergize, especially in keeping the political year situation conducive.

According to Moeldoko, the task of the Presidential Staff Office is in line with the media. Namely, how to manage strategic issues as best as possible so that people get balanced news. Moreover, currently faced with heavy disinformation and fake news.

"With a situation like this, we must have friends to work together to manage issues that appear in the public. For that I welcome PWI Jakarta's desire to synergize with KSP," he said.

The 2013-2015 TNI Commander also asked PWI Jakarta to participate in guarding the political year so that the environment is well maintained. Because the influence of the media on public opinion is extraordinary.

I want to keep the cabinet solidity well maintained. I was once Commander, and I have been tested doing that. I hope my media friends will also participate in guarding this political year," he said.
