JAKARTA - The Golkar Party National Conference Committee officially opened the registration of candidates for general chairman or Caketum Golkar today. Registration will close on December 2. The selection of candidates before the National Conference is carried out according to the statutes of the party.
So far, the candidates who have declared that they will step up to challenge Airlangga Hartarto at the Golkar National Conference are Bambang Soesatyo, Indra Bambang Utoyo, and Agun Gunandjar. There are also names like Ridwan Hisjam who are also said to be going forward.
However, it seemed that only the two candidates were hurling attacks at each other. This time the Bamsoet camp dragged the names that were considered to have helped to win one candidate. If previously, President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) was seen as siding with Airlangga Hartarto because of his praise, now it is the turn of three ministers in Jokowi's cabinet to be dragged away.
Al-Azhar University Political Observer Ujang Komarudin said the conflict had dragged three ministers' names because they were Airlangga loyalists. His appointment was also for Airlangga's services.
"It is very reasonable and very reasonable (concern) for the Bamsoet camp, they (three ministers) are working to pressure the Golkar DPDs to win Airlangga," said Ujang, when contacted by VOI, in Jakarta, Thursday, November 28.
The matter of acclamation or voting depends on the participants of the National Conference. Ujang explained that it was the National Conference participants who had the right to decide. Even so, his party actually saw the tendency towards the acclamation option. "It seems that it is conditioned so that it can be acclaimed," he said.
Previously, Golkar Party chairman candidate Loyalist Bambang Soesatyo (Bamsoet), Syamsul Rizal, mentioned that three of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) ministers intervened in the election of his party's ketum. Syamzul said that the three of them pressed the Golkar DPD to re-elect Airlangga Hartarto as Chairman.
However, Syamzul ensured that the investment of the three ministers was beyond Jokowi's knowledge. Because, since the beginning, Jokowi has emphasized that he will not interfere with the Golkar general election. According to Syamzul, the three Jokowi ministers called directly to the regional Golkar DPD I chairs to vote and side with Airlangga. However, he believes Jokowi does not know anything about it.
"No, not from Golkar. There are three assistants to the President, one is a Golkar cadre, one academic, one other party. What appears very widely is Pak Pratikno, the Minister of State Secretary. So if this is like this, if Golkar breaks, pity Pak Jokowi I don't know the problem but it is considered part of it, PDIP too. So it is not nice to bring the President's name later, "said Syamsul at the Golkar DPP office, Jalan Anggrek Neli Murni, Slipi, West Jakarta, Wednesday, November 27.
Syamzul said, if the pressure continued, it would have the potential to raise a rival munas. In an effort to uphold the constitution in the Golkar Party, given the violations of principles committed by the Airlangga camp.
"This can happen, not a national meeting of the name, but a national assembly in order to purely uphold the organizational constitution in accordance with the AD / ART. This can happen if the current DPP officials are not careful in placing the constitution. people want war, "he said.
