JAKARTA - The issue of a reshuffle or cabinet replacement is strong again after the certainty that the reshuffle will be announced soon. Apart from the toughness of the cabinet reshuffle, it is suspected that there is still a tug of war due to the entry of PAN.
Chairman of the DPP PAN, Saleh Partaonan Daulay, admitted that he was surprised that his party was considered the cause of the delay in the announcement of the volume 2 reshuffle. In fact, he said, so far PAN has been passive in responding to the discourse.
"What is the reason why being a PAN has delayed it? I state that his position is passive, not proactive in this matter. Because we are aware that the reshuffle is the prerogative of the President", said Saleh, Tuesday, April 27.
Saleh again revealed that to this day PAN has not received an offer from the president to join the cabinet. Indeed, he said, there was an offer from the President to the general chairman of PAN, Zulkifli Hasan. However, the previous discussions had not yet reached the finalization of the willingness to join the cabinet.
"Since the first reshuffle issue, the PAN issue in the cabinet has existed. But it hasn't reached the point that says the final talks are, that's why it's not finished yet", said the Chairman of the PAN faction in theHouse of Representatives.
Currently, Saleh added, PAN is still in a position to await special talks regarding offers to enter the cabinet.
"Now we are still waiting. "In particular, there is not yet (an offer to enter the cabinet, red)", he said.
Previously, the Executive Director of Indonesia Political Review (IPR), Ujang Komarudin, assessed that the tug of political interests surrounding President Jokowi made the reshuffle not yet occurred.
"There is still a power interplay (tug of war, red) of political interests around Jokowi. Moreover, there is an issue that PAN will join the Jokowi coalition. This means that a PAN cadre will join the cabinet", said Ujang, Saturday, April 24.
According to him, there was resistance from the coalition parties supporting Jokowi to address the issue of PAN entering the government during the reshuffle moment. As Nasdem still refuses to join PAN.
"Because PAN is considered not bleeding and sweating in the presidential election. Another interesting tug of war could be related to the figure or figure of the minister who will be reshuffled and who will be his successor. There is still no common ground", said Ujang.
