Member of the Indonesian House of Representatives and Deputy Chairman of the Golkar Party, Bambang Soesatyo (Bamsoet), emphasized that the commemoration of the 58th anniversary of the Golkar Party Faction of the Indonesian House of Representatives must be a momentum to strengthen the commitment to maintain democracy through the arrangement of the political party system, encourage welfare, and ensure social justice in every state policy.
"At the age of 58, the Golkar Party Faction must be more mature in reading the challenges of the times. Indonesia is heading towards 2045 facing demographic bonuses, digital transformation, global economic pressure, to geopolitical dynamics. Political power in parliament must be translated into decisions that have a direct impact on the welfare of the people," said Bamsoet after attending the 58th Anniversary of the Golkar Party Faction at the DPR RI Building, Jakarta, Friday (13/2/26).
The event was attended by a number of senior Golkar Party officials, including Golkar Party Chairman Bahlil Lahadalia, Golkar Party Ethics Council Chairman Moh. Hatta, Deputy Chairman of the MPR Kahar Muzakir, Deputy Chairman of the DPR Sari Yuliati, Golkar Party Faction Chairman Sarmuji, Golkar Party Treasurer Putri Komarudin, former Speaker of the DPR Setya Novanto, former Chairman of the Andi Matalata Faction, Robert Cardinal, and members of the Golkar Party Faction of the DPR.
Bamsoet, who is also a former Chairman of the MPR RI, reminded that based on the results of the 2024 Election, the Golkar Party occupies the second position in terms of the most DPR seats with 102 seats. This configuration is considered to provide a strategic space in the formation of laws, discussion of the state budget, to the function of oversight of the course of government.
"In the midst of global changes and national political dynamics, the DPR must be an anchor of democracy. The Golkar Party faction has a moral and political responsibility to ensure that every legislative process is transparent, participatory, and based on the interests of the broad masses of people," said Bamsoet.
He added that the celebration of the 58th anniversary of the Golkar Party Faction was part of internal consolidation in the face of the future legislative agenda. This momentum, according to him, is a reminder that a long political journey must be accompanied by integrity, power ethics, and commitment to the interests of the nation.
"This 58th anniversary celebration must be a new energy to ensure democracy produces prosperity and social justice. The Golkar Party faction must also be an example of how politics are carried out in a civilized, professional, and oriented towards national interests," concluded Bamsoet.
