Previously, the DPR invited representatives of 16 student organizations to have a dialogue on the current condition of the nation after a massive demonstration in various regions on August 25-31, 2025 on Wednesday, September 3. The student representatives also conveyed their aspirations to the DPR.

Deputy Speaker of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, who also met with students, expressed his aspirations regarding allowances and the openness of the DPR will be a consideration in the future. He said the DPR would carry out reforms led directly by Puan.

"The DPR's reform will be led directly by the chairman of the DPR, Mrs. Puan Maharani to become a better and more transparent DPR," said Dasco in a forum for conveying student aspirations at the DPR Building, Senayan, Jakarta, Wednesday, September 3.

Dasco explained that the internal evaluation process had actually begun before the dialogue forum with student elements today. He said meeting with student representatives was a momentum for evaluation.

"Yes, we have evaluated even before today's event. Now the comprehensive evaluations and reforms of the DPR will be led directly by the Chairman of the DPR, Mrs. Puan Maharani, to become a better and more transparent DPR," he said.

"And it turns out that the determination of all members of the DPR who take lessons from the events to the back is to be used as a joint evaluation," added Dasco.
