JAKARTA - PAN General Chair (Ketum) Zulkifli Hasan alias Zulhas said President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) had become a big family of PAN.

"Jokowi is very PAN, so Pak Jokowi's family is PAN. PAN is Pak Jokowi's family," said Zulhas after attending the 2023 All-Indonesian Market Traders Association (APPSI) National Working Meeting in Semarang, Tuesday, December 19.

In addition, Zulhas also mentioned Jokowi as a person who thinks forward, reforms and is innovative. He also appreciated the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train or bettersh which was in line with PAN's thoughts.

"For example, in the past, we sold the country, now it is downstream. Jakarta is stuffy, it immediately makes the capital city, America doesn't have a train (fast) yet, we already have aASH. So PAN really, PAN's family," he said.

When asked if Jokowi already had a PAN membership card, Zulhas answered that it was not necessary.

"Why do the families use KTA," he said while leaving the media crew who interviewed him.

Previously, information circulated that Jokowi had transferred his membership from the PDI-P to PAN.
