Calling the riot at the planned DIY DPRD, this is Sri Sultan’s explanation

KOMPAS.com – The governor of Yogyakarya Special Region (DIY) Sri Sultan Hamengkubowono X regrets that the demonstration against the Job Creation Law in the DIY DPRD ended in chaos.

He himself said that the riots were not merely the action of students or workers. Sri Sultan said that the riot had been organized or by design by a group of people.

The Yogyakarta Palace King also urged the police to immediately investigate and arrest the rioters.

“We sued. Because of this by design, not in the interest of the workers. We know. I don’t think it is necessary to say it, “he emphasized.

The sultan’s accusation was not without foundation. According to him, the riots occurred when the student and labor action ended.

However, there was a group of people who were reluctant to leave the scene of the action.

“Why do I say that, because students, students and workers have ended up in the DPRD. But there is a group that does not want to go,” he said on Friday (09/10/2020).

The group is suspected, according to Sultan, of also destroying public facilities in the DPRD and Malioboro construction areas.

“So that by design, I think. So before leaving Kotabaru, they destroy public facilities, ”he said.

It is not the character of the people of Yogyakarta.
