jpnn.com, JAKARTA – The political observer Prof. Salim Said tries to unravel the issue of the coup action against the Democratic Party that took place through the Extraordinary Congress (KLB) in Sibolangit, Deli Serdang, North Sumatra.
According to him, based on information gathered from the people behind the KLB or what former President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) referred to as the stronghold of the Democratic Party Leadership Acquisition Movement (GPK-PD), there was dissatisfaction with the election. Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) as chairman of the Democratic Party in 2020.
“I contacted those people, the response of those who struck the first blow was Pak SBY against the Democrats and making his son the president of the party,” he said on the Karni Ilyas Club channel on YouTube.
The KLB camp, continued the man whose full name is Salim Haji Said, assesses that SBY has paved the way for AHY to be elected leader of the Democratic Party without controversy. In fact, SBY has been criticizing the practice of nepotism within the party.
Interestingly, this former journalist said, they also said that SBY had repeatedly attacked the nepotists, but had appointed his son as party chairman to replace him.
“Those people said they never expected Pak SBY to encourage their young son to become a Democrat,” he said.
The author of the book Indonesian Military in Politics (2001) added that this problem bothered the initiators of the outbreak.
This is because a party led by a general is not necessarily a success, especially since it is led by a senior.
