JAKARTA - The plan for the meeting of President-elect Prabowo Subianto with the 5th President of the Republic of Indonesia Megawati Soekarnoputri has not yet been scheduled. In fact, both parties have been intensely communicating so that the meeting of the General Chairperson of Gerindra and the Chairman of the PDIP can occur.

Before being sworn in as the 8th President of the Republic of Indonesia on Sunday, October 20, Prabowo is known to have a birthday on October 17, tomorrow. So, will the meeting with Megawati be a'surprise' for Prabowo?

Regarding the surprise, the daily chairman of the Gerindra Party DPP, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, said that his party was still waiting for information on the meeting.

Dasco admitted that until this afternoon he had not communicated with Prabowo, who is currently briefing his ministerial and deputy ministerial candidates in Hambalang, Bogor.

"We are still waiting for information, because today I have not coordinated directly with Pak Prabowo. Later if there is something, usually the media will know first," said Dasco at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Wednesday, October 16.

Dasco then commented on the plan to meet Prabowo and the Head of NasDem, Surya Paloh. Dasco said, the two often meet ahead of the presidential inauguration.

"I heard there was a meeting plan because it had been an appointment for a while. But this is not something extraordinary, because Pak Prabowo and Pak Surya Paloh often meet and indeed maybe before the inauguration," said Dasco.
