JAKARTA - Secretary of the High Council of the Democratic Party Andi Mallarangeng and senior politician from the Democratic Party, Jhoni Allen Marbun, have argued over the plan for the Extraordinary Congress of the Democratic Party (KLB).
The two of them started arguing when referring to a lawsuit to the State Administrative Court (PTUN) after the dishonorable dismissal of 7 Democratic Party cadres by the General Chairman, Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY).
Jhoni Allen Marbun was among the 7 cadres who were fired. In fact, his status as a member of the DPR was also removed. Jhoni Allen emphasized that the lawsuit at the PTUN will continue.
Responding to this, Andi Mallarangeng considered that Jhoni Allen deserved to be fired from the Democrats. Because according to him, the former member of the DPR for the North Sumatra electoral district was proven traitor and tried to sell the party to other parties outside the party.
"What is this? Because of power and money. This is the old political behavior, in the Democrats, it can't be done. He was indeed fired", said Andi in the Kompas TV program quoted by VOI, Tuesday, March 2, 2021.
Andi asked Jhoni not to overturn the facts by calling Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) not the founder of the party bearing the Mercy Star logo.
“Jhoni has been in the Democratic Party for decades, never before mentioned legitimacy of Pak SBY, as the initiator of the party. What I have heard recently, Bung Jhoni is even begging SBY to become PAW (alternation between times), to become a member of the Indonesian Parliament, so that he can replace the existing candidates", said Andi.
Hearing Andi's statement, Jhoni immediately responded. He exposed Andi's bad behavior during his time in the Democrat party. Jhoni said Andi was one of the people who ruined the Democrats by committing a criminal act of corruption.
"That's why you study, learn manners, Jhoni Allen never whines, that's the KPU's decision. I'm not whining, PAW is my right, it's different from those of you who like to justify any means to get money”, said Jhoni.
Jhoni Allen said that Andi Mallarangeng was distorting the facts. Because said Jhoni, Andi was one of the culprits for the decline in democratic electability.
"Hambalang, you put you on hold, you were the one who made the Democrats crushed. You can go to high school until S5, but your behavior is embarrassing. Look now, you don't have the shame of laughing. I'm embarrassed, there's no shame in it”, said Jhoni angrily.
Disagree Discuss the Terms of Execution of KLB
Apart from accusing them of being dismissed, Andi and Jhoni also 'nudged' each other regarding the issue of the Extraordinary Congress (KLB). Andi said that the agenda for a forced takeover of leadership would not take place if it was not approved by the chairman of the Party High Council (MTP).
According to Andi, the KLB must get approval from 3 party assembly members. And if these conditions are not met, then the KLB will certainly be invalid or fake.
"In the AD/ART (Statutes and Bylaws) the internal mechanisms are two-thirds of the DPD, two-thirds of the DPC, and there is an approval from the head of the upper house. Otherwise, it is a fake name", said Andi.
Andi accused Jhoni of conspiring with outsiders. Where the agenda of Jhoni is to urge the Extraordinary Congress (KLB) to overthrow Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) as the legitimate general chairman.
"He was fired because he conspired with elements from outside, the New Order style would follow him today", he said.
Responding to Andi, Jhoni Allen then reminded the former Menpora (Minister of Youth and Sports) to re-read Article 5 paragraph 2 of the Political Party Law which states that the highest decision is in the Extraordinary Congress, not the party's upper house forum.
"It is legal to straighten out deviant party policies", said Jhoni.
According to the news circulating, the Extraordinary Congress of the Democratic Party Volume II will be held in March. Even this information has been confirmed by the founders of the Democrats Party, one of which is Hencky Luntung.
However, regarding the location, until now there has been no certainty about the venue for the congress.
