JAKARTA - Presidential Special Staff Coordinator Ari Dwipayana emphasized the importance of a president to continue to stay in touch with all former presidents, when commenting on the proposed formation of Prabowo Subianto's Presidential Club.
"Whether or not there is a Presidential Club, the President and all former presidents are very important to stay in touch," Ari said as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, May 3.
According to Ari, this has also been done by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) so far, by always maintaining friendship with former presidents, former vice presidents, and other national figures.
"What is certain (consaturation) will be useful for the progress of the nation and state," he said.
Spokesperson for the elected president Prabowo Subianto, Dahnil Azhar Simanjuntak, revealed Prabowo's plan to form a Presidential Club filled with former presidents who are still alive today.
