JAKARTA - Despite the differences in origin, ethnicity, and political parties, President Prabowo Subianto invites all DPRD chairmen throughout Indonesia to unite as fellow countrymen to build the country.
The message of unity was conveyed by President Prabowo in front of 503 DPRD chairmen across Indonesia during a retreat held by the National Resilience Institute (Lemhannas) at the Military Academy (Akmil), Magelang, Central Java, Saturday.
"We come from different backgrounds, different regions, different tribes, different education, different professions, and different political parties. However, as a nation, we are still one," said President Prabowo to the heads of the DPRD, quoted from ANTARA, Saturday, April 18.
During the briefing session, the President then expressed his desire to "talk heart to heart" with the heads of the DPRD. Therefore, the core part of the briefing was held in private.
"I want to talk about what it is. Maybe what I say later will be unpleasant, maybe someone will be offended, someone will be sad," said the President.
Lemhannas RI held a Regional Leadership Development Course (KPPD) which was packaged in the form of a retreat for five days at the Military Academy, Magelang.
This year's KPPD, which is a routine agenda of Lemhannas, has the theme "Strengthening the Role of the Provincial/District/City DPRD Leadership to Support the Asta Cita to Meet the Golden Indonesia 2045".
