JAKARTA - PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri touched on Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo in handling tidal flooding in Semarang.

Megawati's statement was made during the Earthquake and Tsunami Disaster Mitigation Training event held by the PDIP DPP virtually, Wednesday, August 4.

Hearing that, Ganjar smiled and occasionally nodded to listen to Megawati's explanation.

Initially Megawati was talking about tidal flooding in various regions in Indonesia due to climate change. Suddenly, he looked for Ganjar's face who was both present in virtual zoom at the event.

"But at first glance I saw Pak Ganjar. This is if you are still listening to me," said Megawati.

When Ganjar's face was shown on the zoom main screen, Megawati immediately mentioned it. Megawati stated that PDIP appointed Ganjar as Governor of Central Java because it wanted to fix the tidal flood and port management in Semarang, Central Java.

"Well, here it is. That's right from the start I made you (governor), you've already told me, right, wlah wleh wlah wlah wleh Semarang port affairs and so on," said Megawati.

Megawati admitted that she dared to speak like that because Ganjar was both a regional head and a PDIP cadre. The warning aims to improve well in the Central Java region.

"I'm with my subordinates, I'm wani (dare I). But if it's with others, I'm sorry, I'll be considered opo," said Megawati.

"See, what about Semarang. Because I said, why is the tidal wave crying all the time (when there is a flood, the tidal wave will cry)," added Megawati.

Furthermore, he asked the regional government to coordinate with the central government to prepare for tidal flooding in the future.

"All holders of authority in the republic come on. Don't let the assumption that in 10 years (Indonesia) will sink," he said.
