Former Gus Dur Spokesperson Suggests Luhut Apologize To People Who Have Been Buried

JAKARTA - Former spokesman for President Abdurrahman Wahid (Gus Dur) Adhie Massardi, criticized the apology of the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Panjaitan, who is also the Coordinator for the Implementation of Emergency Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) to the public at a press conference, Saturday, July 17.

According to him, Luhut's apology regarding the handling of COVID-19 in the country was too late. This is because the spike in cases will not occur if the government is serious about dealing with the pandemic from the start.

"If only in the first year the government was serious (not joking) in dealing with COVID-19 and funds to overcome the pandemic were not corrupted, surely things wouldn't be this bad," wrote Adhie, quoted from his Twitter account, Monday, July 19.

Due to the government's stuttering and slow steps in dealing with COVID-19, Adhie suggested that Luhut apologize specifically to the victim and the patient's family.

"Which people? Apologize to the people who have been buried or cremated. Those who are still in the ER or self-isolation and their families!" he said.

Which people, if only in the first year the government was serious (not kidding) in handling Covid-19 and the funds to deal with the pandemic were not corrupted, surely things wouldn't be this bad. apologize to the people who have been buried or cremated.

Previously, Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Panjaitan apologized for the non-optimal emergency PPKM. The government, he said, in the next 2-3 days will announce whether or not the emergency PPKM will be extended.

"As the coordinator of the Java Bali Emergency PPKM from the bottom of my heart, I apologize to all Indonesian people if it is still not optimal. But I along with the ranks and with the relevant ministers will continue to work hard to ensure that the spread of the delta variant can be reduced," said Luhut.
