JAKARTA - Secretary-General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto said there would be a dismissal of at least 27 party cadres. The names of the cadres fired will be announced on December 17, 2024.

"The DPP has received input, at least 27 people will be subject to dismissal," said Hasto at a press conference at the PDIP DPP Party School, Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta, Wednesday, December 4.

On December 17, the announcement of the dismissal will be revealed in a ceremony according to party protocols. This is done so that the disciplinary enforcement process becomes an awareness for all PDIP cadres.

"Because when we enter a political party, we reduce ourselves to a bigger party interest, namely for the people, nation and state," explained Hasto.

However, currently Hasto has not revealed the names of the cadres who are considered to have defected from the party's line of direction which will later be removed from their membership.

What is clear, continued Hasto, is that this action is a form of evaluation of the party led by Megawati Soekarnoputri so that PDIP continues to carry out its ideology ahead of next year's party congress onwards.

"Anyone who violates party discipline will be subject to organizational sanctions, so that in the context of the upcoming 2025 congress, the PDI-P can consolidate ideology and organization so that militant Party cadres, Party cadres who uphold the truth, Party cadres who are never afraid in facing various forms of intimidation," he said.
