YOGYAKARTA In the middle of the wedding reception for Kaesang Pangarep and Erina Gudono, there was one interesting moment that was in the spotlight, namely when PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri collaborated with Gibran Rakabuming, who now serves as Mayor of Solo.
The incident then led to a number of speculations from several parties. Director of Indonesian Political Parameters (PPI), Adi Prayitno, for example. He admitted that the incident was indeed multiple interpretations, but he considered that the moment showed closeness and had nothing to do with political electoral matters.
"Multifactory. In general, this kind of relationship is a form of intimacy, closeness, and maternal attitude of Megawati to younger Gibran. It has nothing to do with electoral political matters. Whatever the title, Gibran is the son of President Jokowi who is also a PDIP cadre. The closeness of the two is like a family," said Adi, Monday, December 12.
However, Adi considered it natural that someone linked Gibran's moment with him as a code or signal because Gibran was also rumored to be advancing in the Central Java or Jakarta gubernatorial election.
Adi also assessed Megawati's endorsement for Gibran. Jokowi also showed the same thing about potential figures who will run as presidential candidates in 2024.
"But everything related to Megawati, Jokowi, Gibran, and Puan must be a little more associated with electoral politics even though theganganganis just a normal match," said Adi.
The PDI-P politician Masinton Pasaribu also revealed the same thing. According to him, this moment can be interpreted as a code related to the nomination of the Governor of DKI or Central Java.
"Yes, it could be. Yes, the name is cadre," Masinton told reporters, early last week.
Masinton also considered that the moment he had partnered with Gibran signaled Gibran's closeness to Megawati. The closeness is considered like a family, not related to party positions.
"Yes, it shows psychologically, emotionally it is close, family relationship. Relations are not only because of positions, but indeed family relations are in line," said Masinton.
As is known, Megawati Soekarnoputri attended the wedding ceremony of Kaesang and Erina which was held at Mangkunegaran Temple, Solo, Central Java, Sunday, December 11.
Megawati herself was accompanied by her daughter, Puan Maharani, who now serves as Chair of the Indonesian House of Representatives. In addition, the Head of the Intelligence Agency (BIN), Budi Gunawan, and the Secretary General of PDIP, Hasto Kristiyanto were also seen.
The fifth former president of the Republic of Indonesia came wearing a red maroon kebaya. Meanwhile, Puan Maharani was seen wearing a white kebaya combination of gray colors.
After Megawati and her entourage arrived at the location, they immediately went to the aisle and took a photo with the bride and groom. After the photo session, Megawati and Gibran seemed to be holding hands.
Related to this, President Jokowi's eldest son explained that this moment was an initiative that had collapsed from him. "I was the one cooperating. In collaboration," said Gibran.
According to her, Megawati is a good person to everyone. She also explained that she was considered like a grandson to Megawati.
"Mrs. Mega is indeed being kind to everyone, right. I (treated) like a grandson," he said again.
