JAKARTA - Although they wanted Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) to resign from the General Chair of the Democratic Party, a number of parties wanted Edhy Baskoro Yudhoyono alias Ibas.
Ibas is predicted to become a candidate for the secretary general of the Democratic Party to accompany the new chairman through the Extraordinary Congress (KLB).
HM Darmizal, a senior figure and one of the founders of the Democratic Party, revealed that the appearance of the name Ibas was the opinion of the communication results of the Democratic cadres below.
According to him, whoever the Democratic cadre is allowed to nominate and be nominated in the congress.
"That's an opinion. They can nominate me to be the General Secretary, there is no prohibition," said Darmizal after a press conference in Mega Kuningan, Thursday, February 25.
Chairman of the Young Democrats Cadre Aswin Ali Nasution explained the reason for choosing Ibas as a candidate for the party secretary general bearing the symbol of mercy. According to him, Ibas deserves to be the leader of the Democrats because he has gone through a regeneration process that runs in the party.
"The reason we chose it was because Mas Ibas had carried out the regeneration. From below, he even had discussions with KMD," said Aswin in Mega Kuningan, Thursday, February 25.
Asked whether the recommendation of the candidate for secretary general had been discussed with Ibas, Aswin said that he would immediately communicate with the younger brother of the chairman of the Democrats, Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono.
"Later we will communicate with Mas Ibas to be willing to be nominated as general secretary of the Democratic Party DPP. This is only a suggestion," he said.
