JAKARTA - The daily chairman of the Gerindra Party DPP, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, said that the plan to meet Gerindra Party Chairman Prabowo Subianto with PDI-P General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri was needed in the context of friendship and cooling the atmosphere ahead of the 2024 Presidential Election.
"I think the meetings between these two political figures are in the context of friendship, then in order to cool, make the atmosphere cool," Dasco said as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 24.
According to him, the meeting of the two general chairmen of political parties provided benefits, although so far the Gerindra Party and the PDI-P have their respective attitudes regarding the presidential candidate in the 2024 election.
"That then there are other talks, please decide later by Pak Prabowo and Bu Mega, or then just stay in touch to make Indonesia cooler. That has benefits in our opinion," said Dasco.
He explained that Prabowo's plan to meet Megawati was in the context of the Eid al-Fitr 1444 Hijri gathering which had not been realized.
Dasco also emphasized that the relationship between Prabowo and Megawati was fine, as seen in several meetings before Lebaran 2023 and other events that brought the two political figures together.
"The relationship is good. I'm also confused if there are questions, whether or not. As far as I know I'm fine," he asserted.

Previously, Deputy Chairman of the Gerindra Party Board of Trustees Desmond J. Mahesa questioned the plan to meet the General Chairperson of the Gerindra Party, Prabowo Subianto, with PDI-P General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri.
"What do you think, what do you want to do? Just make people think differently," said Desmond.
Because, he continued, the PDI-P had declared Ganjar Pranowo to run as a presidential candidate (candidate) in the 2024 General Election.
Unless the Governor of Central Java is willing to become a candidate for vice president (cawapres) Prabowo Subianto, the meeting with Megawati will become clear.
"Unless Ganjar wants to be Mr. Prabowo's deputy, there will be a kind of meeting, if not, just tired," he said.
Meanwhile, Secretary General of the Gerindra Party DPP Ahmad Muzani said that Prabowo's plan to meet Megawati was being scheduled by the management.
"It is being scheduled, with Mrs. Puan (Puan Maharani) earlier she also said that she would meet Mr. Prabowo," said Muzani.
