JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo responded casually to the news of his "disappearing" photo in one of the offices of the North Sumatra PDI-P Regional Representative Council (DPD).

"Just take a photo," said Jokowi on the sidelines of a working visit in Karawang, West Java, as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 8.

When asked for his response regarding the statement by the PDI-P Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto, who said Jokowi's photo "lost" also occurred in several PDI-P DPD offices in areas other than North Sumatra, Jokowi again emphasized that it was just a photo.

"Yes, just take a photo," he said.

Secretary General of the PDI-P Hasto Kristiyanto previously suspected that Jokowi's photo at his party office in the regions was a form of expression for the cadres.

He emphasized that this was not an instruction from the PDI-P Central Representative Council. Hasto said Joko Widodo and Ma'ruf Amin are the Presidents and Vice Presidents and PDI-Ps who have great respect for this.

The representatives of the North Sumatra PDI DPD themselves clarified that Jokowi's photo in one of the rooms was caused by a photo of the President falling during a billboard installation in the room.
