JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian Youth National Committee (KNPI) Haris Pertama defended M Taufik's dismissal of the Gerindra Party who was accused of often embracing FPI by social media activist Denny Siregar.

"Little bit, Lo @Dennysiregar7 accuses FPI and radicals," said Haris on his Twitter account, @knpiharis, Wednesday, June 8.

M Taufik is a former high-ranking DRPD DKI official and chairman of the Jakarta Islamic Student Association (HMI) Alumni Corps Regional Council. Haris did not accept that his senior was being falsely accused by Denny.

"Just so you know, what you accuse is my senior. Taufik is a senior HMI Jakarta branch and the chairman of MW KAHMI DKI Jakarta," he said.

For the accusations against M Taufik, Haris, who is the General Chair of the 2018-2021 KNPI DPP, assessed that Denny's hobby of slandering people should be stopped.

"Your hobby is to corner and slander people," he said.

According to him, Denny with his social media consistently undermines the unity and integrity of fellow nation's children.

Haris also challenged Denny openly to meet with himself and HMI and KAHMI, two student organizations whose names were brought up when they cornered M Taufik.

"Woi @Dennysiregar7 if you want to face HMI and KAHMI, come on…. You are the coaches, yes," said Haris.

Previously, Denny said the Gerindra Party was eroding its cadres who often embraced social organizations (ormas) FPI in their practical politics. This was conveyed by Denny at the same time as the dismissal of M Taufik from the party created by Prabowo Subianto.

Even Denny Siregar uploaded two news clippings about M Taufik's dismissal to complete his tweet on his Twitter.

"The @Gerindra party seems to be cleaning up its cadres who like to embrace FPI. You see, supporting radical mass organizations, as it seems, is no longer a trend now. It's just crowded, but lost on the battlefield," said Denny.

Eh, there's still @fadlizon. Is he now excited??" he continued.
