Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Cadre Ade Armando (ANTARA)

JEMBER - The DPP of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) regretted the statement of its cadre, Ade Armando, who commented on the dynastic politics in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY). PSI has not yet given a harsh warning. "Once again we regret Bang Ade's statement. We have given a strong warning to Bang Ade," said PSI Deputy Chairman Grace Natalie after accompanying PSI Chairman Kaesang Pangarep to meet with an "influencer" in Jember Regency, East Java, quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, December 7. Regarding sanctions for Ade Armando, currently there is still a discussion within the party, but there has been a strong warning from Kaesang as chairman of the party. "(For sanctions) it is still being met, but there has been a direct strong reprimand from Mas Kaesang," said Grace. According to him, Ade Armando has made a video of an apology statement delivered through his social media. "Bang Ade emphasized that his opinion is a personal opinion, not PSI opinion. There was no coordination at all and we were also shocked by his statement," said Grace.

Previously, PSI politician Ade Armando conveyed criticism to students, especially the Student Executive Board (BEM) of the University of Indonesia (UI) and Gajah Mada University (UGM), who held protests related to dynastic politics. Ade Armando said that BEM UI and BEM UGM were ironic because it was the Special Region of Yogyakarta that practiced dynastic politics. This was conveyed by Ade Armando through his X account, @adearmando61.
