Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –
Party Vice President Gelora Indonesia Fahri Hamzah | responding to various accusations that they claim to be perpetuating political dynasty after expressing support for President Joko Widodo’s family at Pilkada 2020 simultaneously.
The Gelora Party supports President Jokowi’s son-in-law Gibran Rakabuming Raka and Bobby Nasution, who are running in Solo and Medan Pilkada. Fahri also admitted that he had advised Gibran not to enter the circle of power. At that point, Fahri argued, Jokowi’s reputation would be bad if Gibran came to power. Now his attitude is the opposite.
“That was advice a year ago: There is still no Gelora. There is still no Pilkada. Gibran still has not progressed. One year later: The Gelora is here. The regional election is a legal start. Gibran has already moved on. Cooking is prohibited “Fahri wrote on the official Twitter account @Fahrihamzah as quoted. CNNIndonesia.com, Saturday (19/9).
Fahri admitted that there were changes regarding his support for Gibran. However, his views on political dynasties remain the same.
The former president of DPR RI said he did not support political dynasties. At the same time, Fahri emphasized that there is no political dynasty in a democratic country. Because political dynasties are a heritage of power based on heredity.
“In the dynastic tradition, the royal heir does not risk losing victories. In pilkada, pilkada participants have a chance to lose and win. Candidates take risks. But let the people take risks. Pak Jokowi’s sons and Pak Ma’ruf’s children are at risk. ”Fahri tweeted.
Since Friday night (9/18), Fahri has made a series of tweets related to political dynasties. He even had time to argue with Said Didu on Twitter. Fahri’s name also entered the ranks of the most popular topics (trending topic) because many Internet users participated in the pros and cons.
One of the lighters was Fahri’s statement on political dynasties. He, known as the opposition in the first term of the Jokowi administration, claimed that Gelora’s support for Gibran and Bobby was not a reflection of support for political dynasties.
“In a democratic country there will be no political dynasty, because democratic power is not transmitted by blood from generation to generation. But he is elected through a political procession. People who enter the political procession do not necessarily win or lose.” Fahri said in a written statement. , Friday (18/9).
