Chairman of the PDI-P (PDIP) Megawati Soekarnoputri teased the Chairperson of the PDIP DPP Puan Maharani to exchange roles. This moment made a scene at the PDIP National Working Meeting at the Beach International Stadium, Ancol, North Jakarta, Friday, May 24.

Initially, Megawati introduced Puan, who currently serves as chairman of the Indonesian House of Representatives. He said that Puan often traveled outside the city and even abroad to attend legislative events.

"Mbak Puan, I told Mbak Puan, as chairman of the DPR, well, going abroad all the time. But that's work, you know, not being a tourist," Megawati said in front of the cadres and invited guests.

Megawati then mentioned that Puan had just attended the 2024 World Water Forum (WWF) Summit in Bali. Then, he also attended the world-class legislative event in Mexico.

Seeing the many jobs of Puan, Megawati then teased her. He invited his son to exchange roles which meant that Puan became the General Chair of the PDIP.

"I said,'Replace me with me. I am the chairman of the DPR, you are the general chairman'," said Megawati, who made the cadres excited.

"Well, it's all right, when I was told to hang out here. Then the situation was not clear," he added with a smile.

The lady in front of Megawati was then highlighted by the camera. Seen from the screen, he then laughed at his mother's temptation.

As previously reported, PDIP held the National Working Meeting V for three days on May 24-26. There are three main agendas that will be discussed.

The first is related to the political attitude of the party bearing the bull symbol for the next five years or during the reign of Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka. The second agenda of the National Working Meeting V PDIP is to discuss the populist programs that will be promoted by PDIP.
