"Nothing has been received yet," said Dasco when confirmed, Friday, October 29.
The daily chairman of the Gerindra DPP explained that currently the DPR is still in recess next week. Therefore there has been no communication related to the surpres.

Previously, the Chairperson of Commission I of the DPR, Meutya Hafid, acknowledged that the three potential candidates, namely KSAD, KSAU and KSAL, performed well so that it was difficult for Jokowi to determine.
"As for the figures, they are all good. All the candidates we have heard of for the president are certainly difficult to decide because there are many considerations and the candidates are all good," said Meutya to reporters at the Golkar Party's DPP Office, West Jakarta, Monday, October 18. .
Meanwhile, regarding the Presidential Letter (Surpres), which Jokowi has not yet sent to the DPR, Meutya estimates that it will be received in early November.
The Golkar politician also confirmed that the DPR still has time to process the presidential decree. This is because TNI Commander Hadi has just entered retirement at the end of November 2021.
"More or less early November, that's what I heard last. Indeed, there is still time until the end of November for the process," said Meutya.
