The Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto said that the series of commemoration of the events on July 27, 1996, also known as Kudatuli felt different this year. He said the current atmosphere seemed to have occurred in the midst of the revival of the new order or or New Order volume II.

This was conveyed when he spoke in the discussion 'Preceptive of Kudatuli Politics: Resistance to the Authoritarian Regime' at the PDIP DPP Office, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Saturday, July 20. Initially, Hasto said that he had discussed with PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri about activities to commemorate the incident.

The series that we are doing today, this is the same as nine years ago. The substance is the same which distinguishes the spiritual atmosphere, the spiritual atmosphere is different," said Hasto.

Hasto then wrote the sentence of one of the activists, namely Wilson, who was also present and was a speaker at the activity. "The atmosphere of bativity is different," he said.

"Because the nature that Bung Wilson said earlier seems to be the new order volume II," continued the former member of the DPR RI.

Moreover, the assumption that the new order volume II is visible because of the abuse of power which is increasingly seen as not just a thumbs up. "Nampak increasingly shows the resemblance of what set the background for the 27 July 1996 incident," said Hasto.

On this occasion, Hasto also explained that the Kudatuli incident was always commemorated so that all parties could remember and know Megawati's thoughts at that time.

"Why is a Megawati with tremendous pressure from the new order by persuasion her extraordinary power, she continues to take a very consistent path," he said.

"So that the voices of the people who were silent at that time so that the voices of the people at that time who did not dare to speak could dare to speak," concluded Hasto.
