JAKARTA - Chairman of PAN Zulkifli Hasan apologized to the public for the actions of 3 of his cadres who made controversial statements regarding the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Starting from not wanting to be quarantined after coming from abroad, asking for a special hospital for officials, to the ICU for members of the DPR.
Zulhas, as he is usually called, has to admit the controversial mistakes of his subordinates. According to him, the statements of the 3 cadres are less sensitive to the problems felt by the community in the midst of the current pandemic.
"On behalf of the National Mandate Party (PAN), I apologize for the actions and statements of my cadres who are less sensitive to the existing situation," Zulhas told reporters, Thursday, July 15, evening.
The deputy chairman of the MPR admitted that he had reprimanded the cadre concerned for his public statements that caused a commotion. "I have reprimanded three PAN cadres who made controversial statements," said Zulhas.
"On behalf of the party, once again I apologize," he added.
As reported, in the first controversy, Member of the Indonesian Parliament from the PAN faction, Guspardi Gaus, was reluctant to undergo self-quarantine even though he had just returned from abroad. He admitted this during a meeting of the Papua Special Autonomy Bill at the Senayan Parliament Complex, Thursday, July 1. Guspardi alluded to the Ministry of Health's bad ways. The reason he didn't want to go into self-quarantine was because he wanted to attend the meeting. "I just came from Kyrgyzstan. I was worried last night, I wanted to stay in a hotel. And indeed the ways the Ministry of Health did it were not good. I want to attend this activity. So, I'm sorry if I'm late," said Guspardi in the meeting. "Leader, that's how I love my duties and responsibilities. Actually, I had to be isolated in the hotel first, but fortunately with protocol and various things, I wanted to attend the meeting," he added.
The second controversy that drew the most public attention, Deputy Secretary General (Wasekjen) of DPP PAN, dr. Rosaline Irine Rumaseuw, asked the government to provide a special hospital for state officials or council members infected with COVID-19.
The reason is, in recent days many members of the House of Representatives and other state officials have fallen against the deadly virus. Even milling sad news.
"I've been helping state officials for one month, two months to refer to hospitals in Jakarta. The government has forgotten that it must provide health facilities for state officials. I know there is an RSPAD, but once Corona was born, we weren't ready so health facilities didn't exist. We are too complacent that all of Jakarta exists even though it doesn't exist," said dr. Rosaline in a webinar 'Netizens' Perceptions of Handling COVID-19', Wednesday, July 7.
Not yet dry public criticism. The third controversy was made by PAN DPP Chairman Saleh Partaonan Daulay at the Commission IX meeting on Tuesday, July 13, and was attended virtually by Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin.
Saleh said he did not want any members of the House of Representatives who did not get an ICU room at the hospital.
"I don't want to hear, for example, that there are members of the DPR who can't get an ICU, like what happened to my brother, John Siffy Mirin, a member of the DPR from Papua, the National Mandate Party Faction," said Saleh.
