Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –
Deputy Expert of the Office of Presidential Personnel (KSP) Donny Gahral Adian denied the change of position of General TNI Gatot Nurmantyo as commander TNI due to the order to watch G30S / PKI movies.
Gatot through the YouTube account Hersubeno Point said that his replacement as commander of TNI at that time was due to the order to see the film G30S / PKI.
“If that is indeed, Pak Gatot’s tenure is over and it is time to change the TNI leadership. Therefore, there is no connection to the G30S projection,” Donny said when contacted Wednesday (23 / 9).
Donny said it would be too far if Gatot linked the replacement of the TNI commander with the order to screen the G30S / PKI film.
He stressed that the replacement of the TNI commander at the time was appropriate because it was in line with the Gatot mandate that had ended.
“I think it is too far and a little too far to associate the screening of the film G30S with its retirement. We know that the leadership of TNI / Polri must have a mandate and when it is finished there will be a change,” he explained.
Donny also denied Gatot’s statement that the determination of June 1 as Pancasila’s birthday was a wish of the PKI.
He explained that June 1 was the day that the first president of the Republic of Indonesia, Sukarno, delivered a speech on Pancasila at the Indonesian Independence Preparatory Investigation Agency (BPUPKI) trial. Until it was finally celebrated on June 1 because it was the first day that Pancasila appeared openly.
“So it has nothing to do with the PKI. So who wants the PKI to be held on June 1? It’s kind of mind-boggling and connects Pancasila and PKI birthdays too much,” Donny said.
Donny also relayed the same in response to Gatot’s statement on the Pancasila Ideology Directorate Bill (RUU HIP) that had caused a controversy. Gatot considered, there are parties that want to change the base of the state through the HIP Bill, which is the manifesto of the PKI figure DN Aidit.
Donny emphasized that the discussion of the HIP bill at the time had nothing to do with PKI. Also, the HIP bill has now been changed to the Pancasila Ideology Development Agency (BPIP) bill.
“There is no such thing as PKI that wants to change the basis of the state through the HIP Bill. Even now, the BPIP Bill that regulates the main tasks and functions of BPIP is nothing to worry about,” he said.
Apart from this, Donny did not deny the many dynamics related to the PKI before September 30. However, he stressed that the government has nothing to do with the PKI.
According to him, the PKI was a banned organization that had been disbanded, making it impossible if it later influenced the government in formulating various policies.
“The political dynamics related to the PKI are common, especially on September 30. From year to year there are voices that accuse the government of this, as far as the PKI is concerned,” he said.

Gatot said he was replaced because he ordered his staff to watch the G30S / PKI movie. Gatot’s orders at the time also caused controversy. Earlier, through a video uploaded to Hersubeno Point’s YouTube account on September 21, 2020, Gatot raised the issue of changing as TNI’s commander in 2017.
“When I became a TNI commander, I ordered my ranks to watch the G30S / PKI movie,” he said in a broadcast on his YouTube account.
Until finally the PDIP politician whom he referred to as a ‘friend’ asked him to be careful.
“I have a friend from one of the parties, let’s call it the PDI party, who says, ‘Pak Gatot, stop that. Otherwise, Mr Gatot will be replaced,'” he said. “I said ‘thank you’, but instead I gasped because this is really dangerous, and it’s true that I was replaced,” he continued.
He also referred to the June 1 commemoration, which was established by President Joko Widodo as Pancasila’s birthday. According to him, the determination of June 1 was the wish of the PKI.
Gatot also said that the discussion about the HIP Bill some time ago actually wanted to change the basis of the Indonesian state as the PKI wishes.
“This is a manifesto delivered by DN Aidit in 1963. So, the reason for Pancasila to be changed while in the preamble of the 1945 Constitution says that the basis of the state is Almighty God, it means the same as wanting to change this country. Who else if not the PKI, “he said.
