One of the messages that Megawati conveyed to Hasto was ordering to follow the legal process. This is also an example for other PDIP cadres.
"Carry out obligations as a citizen of the country who obeys the law. Because the PDI-P always teaches its cadres about the importance of rule of law," said Hasto.

At least the number of questions was because the examination of Hasto was only a clarification that was not mandatory to attend.
