JAKARTA - The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) became the first political party met by the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), after being led by Kaesang Pangarep. Kaesang admitted that he had an inner bond with PDIP. It is known that Kaesang's extended family is a PDIP politician. Starting from his father President Joko Widodo, the older brother who is the Mayor of Solo Gibran Rakabuming Raka, and his brother-in-law who serves as Mayor of Medan, Bobby Nasution. "There must be internal ties. The president, the mayor, the mayor, all in the PDIP who are also my family, there will always be ties too," said Kaesang in Menteng, Central Jakarta, Thursday, October 5. In addition, Kaesang assessed that PDIP was the political party that won the election. So according to him, meeting with PDIP DPP Chair Puan Maharani for political gathering is a wise attitude. "We also have to know that PDIP is also the party that won the previous election. So I think it's fair enough to meet the first PDIP," said Jokowi's youngest son. Meanwhile, PDIP DPP Chair Puan Maharani denied that her meeting with PSI chairman after being held by Kaesang was to remove the PDIP designation as an arrogant party. According to Puan, the new PDIP and PSI meeting was only a matter of technical problems. "Yes, don't say arrogant or not arrogant. This is just a technical problem, communication that has not been connected. Thank God we connected today, yes, sir," said Puan. Puan said that problematic communication should not happen again in the future. Moreover, the daughter of the PDIP Ketum Megawati Soekarnoputri already considers Kaesang like her own sister.

"It's connected, so it's a misunderstanding or then a miss communication that may never happen, don't let it happen again and happen again," said Puan. "So now these brothers have met, met, God willing, we can both build this nation and this country," he added.
