The PDI-P (PDIP) will first arrest the code from the General Chairperson of NasDem Surya Paloh who wants to meet his general chairman, Megawati Soekarnoputri. The purpose and dialogue of the meeting must be clear. "Pak Surya Paloh said, there are codes. We have to arrest the code first, what is the code for. For the benefit of the nation and state, for electoral codes, (or, red) for the code of presidential and vice-presidential candidates," PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto told reporters at the PDIP DPP Party School, Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta, Friday, February 3. If the code of the meeting is to discuss electoral matters regarding the presidential and vice-presidential candidates, it is not in line with the party. Moreover, Hasto said, Megawati as the General Chair of the PDIP always said that the name to be carried was an internal party cadre. Moreover, NasDem had already announced their presidential candidate, namely former DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan. "As for the presidential and vice presidential candidates, right, NasDem already has a presidential candidate," he said. In addition, PDIP will also carry a presidential candidate who can lead and have quality. This is in accordance with Megawati's statement. "Mrs. Mega's speech is that the PDIP presidential candidate from the cadre who excels is not a presidential candidate who is smart enough to polish himself," said Hasto. Even so, Hasto ensured that his party would still be open to dialogue with other parties. Moreover, if the contents are related to the future of the nation. "PDIP principle is as a party that prioritizes mutual cooperation, which prioritizes these dialogues to solve the problems of the nation and state, but also for future designs. So we are open," he said. Previously, the Chairman of the NasDem Party, Surya Paloh, threw a code to visit the PDIP. However, they are still waiting for PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri to take the time. "I think there is a desire for it, just arrange it. We give the codes first, we ask maybe when Mrs. Mega will have a good time, right," said Surya Paloh at the Golkar Party DPP Office, Slipi, West Jakarta, Wednesday, February 1. He hopes that Megawati will have the same spiritual atmosphere and hopes. So that the meeting between NasDem and PDIP can be realized. "Hopefully the spiritual atmosphere is the same, hope, acceptance is the same. So obviously there is (the desire to visit PDIP, ed)," he said.
