JAKARTA - The National Mandate Party (PAN) proposed the name of Soetrisno Bachir as a candidate for minister in the Jokowi-Ma'ruf Amin government. The chairman of the DKI Jakarta PAN DPW, Eko Hendro Purnomo alias Eko Patrio, said that Soetrisno was the right person to be included in the Advanced Indonesia Cabinet because he had a good track record.

"It is very much appreciated if Sutrisno Bachir is elected as minister, it's fitting," said Eko at the DPR Building, Wednesday, September 22.

Personally, Eko wants Soetrisno Bachir or PAN chairman Zulkifli Hasan to be elected as Jokowi's assistant. However, the ketum is said to want to focus on managing the party.

"Because Bang Zul wants to concentrate on managing the party with the secretary general, he said, so we appreciate it," said Eko.

Previously, the chairman of the PAN PAN Zulhas offered the name Soetrisno Bachir when President Joko Widodo asked him to sit in the Cabinet as a minister.

This was conveyed by the man who is familiarly called Zulhas in his discussion with senior journalist Karni Ilyas on the Karni Ilyas Club YouTube channel entitled 'Why did PAN Finally Enter Jokowi's Coalition!? Offered the Minister's Seat!?".

Initially, Karni, who acted as host in the special discussion, started by asking how, for example, the president offered to enter the cabinet, what minister would be given to PAN.

Zulhas then replied, he said, it is not PAN's habit to offer names to become ministers in the government. However, Zul mentioned the name Soetrisno Bachir.

"Once again, it's out of the ordinary for us not to submit. Indeed, in one meeting I conveyed that because there was a PAN Honorary Council whose name was Mas Tris (Soetrisno Bachir) that was Jokowi's success team, formerly the chairman of KEIN (Economic and Industrial Committee). whatever. Mas Tris as Mr. Jokowi's success team at that time could be played again whatever it was, "Zulhas said in the discussion.

After hearing Zulhas' answer, Karni again questioned Zulhas by calling Sutrisno Bachir more of an economic background.
