JAKARTA - Secretary General of the Gerindra Party, Ahmad Muzani, responded to the issue that Habiburokhman would become minister of law and human rights (Menkumham) in the Prabowo-Gibran government.
The issue arose after the Deputy Chairman of Commission III of the DPR from the Gerindra faction was called a candidate for Menkumham during the Commission III working meeting. Muzani considers this a prayer for Habiburokhman from his co-committee.
"That's the prayers of Commission III friends to Habiburokhman, yes," said Muzani, Thursday, March 7.
Muzani explained that until now the pair number 2 Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming have not discussed the composition of the next cabinet. Although both of them excel in the results of the quick count or quick count of the 2024 presidential election.
The deputy chairman of the MPR said Prabowo was still carrying out his duties as Minister of Defense (Menhan). Meanwhile, Gibran is still serving as Mayor of Solo.
"So until now, the elected president of the 2024 election results, Pak Prabowo and his vice presidential candidate, Mas Gibran Rakabuming, have not discussed the issue in detail, both criteria, let alone names about the composition and position of the people who will be placed in ministries," explained Muzani.
"Because of Pak Prabowo's busy schedule and agenda, all I know is to attend various meetings and forums, continue to meet figures, institutions, and he gets various inputs, including from coalition parties," he continued.
The deputy chairman of TKN Prabowo-Gibran also emphasized that so far there has been no discussion about the distribution of ministers if Prabowo is later appointed as president elected by the KPU. Discussions on this matter, he said, will definitely involve parties in the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM).
"So he has not yet determined the names to occupy certain positions. Therefore, everything circulating about A occupying B, C occupying position D, is speculative. Pak Prabowo himself always said that in due course he would continue to consult with the party," concluded Muzani.
Previously, Deputy Chairman of Commission III of the DPR Habiburokhman was referred to as a candidate for the Minister of Law and Human Rights (Menkumham) at the Commission III working meeting, Thursday, March 7, noon.
In a meeting discussing the granting of citizenship to three candidates for Indonesian national team footballers, member of Commission III from the Golkar Party faction Supriansa suddenly greeted Habiburokhman as a candidate for Menkumham.
"Dear Mr. Habiburokhman, God willing, he will become a candidate for the Minister of Law and Human Rights," Supriansa said at a working meeting.
Hearing this, Habiburokhman then joked that the tea in front of him was spilled. Supriansa also continued his joke with the Deputy Chairman of the Prabowo National Campaign Team (TKN) Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka.

In fact, Supriansa also appointed two representatives of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights who were present at the meeting, namely the Director General of Law and Human Rights Regulations Asep N Mulyana and the Director General of General Legal Administration of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights Cahyo Rahadian.
"God willing, Mr. Asep and Mr. Cahyo have prayed," said the Golkar Party politician.
Not only Supriansa, a member of Commission III of the DPR from the PKB faction, Heru Widodo also joked to Habiburokhman. He said that Habiburokhman was a candidate for the superiors of the two Kemenkumham employees.
"What I respect is Mr. Habiburokhman, the leadership of Commission III, the candidate for the Minister of Law and Human Rights, the candidates for boss Mr. Cahyo and Mr. Asep," said Heru.
Habiburokhman, who heard the joke, admitted that he was not feeling well and asked the two members of the DPR to focus on the discussion.
"No, sir, continued sir. So it's good, not so it's not good, sir," said the Deputy Chairperson of the Gerindra Party.
