JAKARTA - The former deputy chairman of the Ummat Party, Agung Mozin, denied his resignation because the management of the party was dominated by the family of Amien Rais.

"Not really, it's not true that Pak Amien's family is dominated," said Agung to VOI, Friday, August 27.

According to him, the struggle for the Ummat Party was stopped because it did not match the leadership style of general chairman Ridho Rahmadi.

"This is about leadership, not about domination, no. An organization is also colored by the leadership style of the general chairman," he said.

Agung considered that the Ummat Party under Ridho's control did not prioritize deliberation as a function of Islamic parties.

"If deliberation is not carried out, especially as vice chairman or the highest leader of the party, this party is not involved in deliberation and there are barriers for reasons of efficiency and effectiveness, this is not a company, this is a party. This means that the involvement of people in the party is very important, communication is very important," he said. Great.

Previously, the Executive Director of Indonesia Political Opinion (IPO) Dedi Kurnia Syah, assessed that Agung Mozin's resignation from the Ummat Party was because the internal party was too dominated by the Amien Rais family.

It is known that the General Chair of the Ummat Party is Amien Rais' son-in-law, Ridho Rahmadi. Meanwhile, Amien Rais serves as chairman of the shura assembly of the Ummat Party.

Then, two of Amien Rais' children, Tasniem Fauzia Rais and Ahmad Hanafi Rais were included in the ranks of the founding figures of the party bearing the Shield of Tauhid logo. Tasniem is the wife of Ridho Rahmadi.

"Reading Mozin's letter gives the impression that there is a disapproval of the dominance of the Amien Rais family. Even Mozin's copy clearly emphasizes the relationship between the general chairman and Amien Rais, where the text is not uncommon in professional letters," said Dedi, Friday, August 27.
