Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto asked for his general chairman's speech, Megawati Soekarnoputri at the BKKBN event to be seen in full and in a context. The chairman of the Steering Committee of the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) has no intention of offending anyone, including recitation mothers. "Yes, it must be seen thoroughly the speech of the General Chairperson. Mrs. Mega in the speech, the theme is about stunting. About how the involvement of mothers in children's education is to get ready to face disasters," Hasto told reporters at the PDIP DPP Party School, Lenteng Agung, Jakarta, Thursday, February 23. Instead of mentioning, Megawati is considered by Hasto to be providing education to her family to prevent stunting for children. The 5th President of the Republic of Indonesia wants the nutrition of children in the country to be well prepared by his family. Moreover, Megawati is also one of the mothers who took part in the recitation. Hasto said this had been conveyed in the speech. "So, it's not about the recitation problem. That's an important thing to say in the speech, mother (says) 'I also took part in the recitation'," he explained. Even so, Hasto believes that there are parties who deliberately misinterpret Megawati's statement. The reason is, 2023 is the beginning of the political year. So, all parties should have heard Megawati's speech as a whole. "There you said, sorry, sorry. I conveyed a portrait of how the mothers' attention to stunting was lacking," said Hasto. In his remarks at the Kick off of Pancasila in the Action of the Universal Movement Planning to Prevent Stunting, Sexual Violence in Children and Women, Domestic Violence and Anticipating Disasters, Megawati had time to deliver a controversial statement. This activity was held on February 16 and was organized by BPIP, BRIN, BKKBN. "I saw these mothers, sorry, yes, now it looks like the culture, sorry, not later I will be bullied, why are you so happy to attend the recitation. Yes, you know, sorry, sorry," said Mega. "I thought like that, how long will this be for ki's recitation to yo, what are you going to do with the child (what do you want to do with it?)," he said at the time. This statement was then reported to Komnas Perempuan by the Yogyakarta Human Rights Activist Coalition. In addition, Megawati was required to participate in training on gender justice. This is related to Megawati's statement regarding current women who are considered passionate about participating in the recitation. "We view that the official statement is suspected of having negative labeling the women's community in Indonesia, in this case, the women of recitation by labeling child neglecting and unable to manage the household," said Yogyakarta Human Rights Activist Coalition coordinator Tri Wahyu, Wednesday, February 22.
