Jakarta (Antara Bali) -- The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) believes that President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo, who is also a party member, will attend its fourth congress scheduled to be held in Bali from April 8 to 10.
"Mr. Jokowi will show up as the congress, which is a national celebration, is the party's highest forum. So all cadres and executive board members will participate," Deputy Secretary General of the PDIP Ahmad Basarah said here on Tuesday.
Jokowi was invited to the congress not only because he is the president of the Republic of Indonesia, but also because he is a member of the party, he pointed out. As one of the party's best cadres, Jokowi is an integral part of the national congress, Basarah remarked.
"There is no problem over coordinating with the central executive board of the PDIP with regard to Jokowi's presence at the congress. God willing, he will attend the opening ceremony of the party's fourth congress," he stated.
Basarah further noted that the presence of President Jokowi and his aides at the congress will serve as a means to share knowledge about the government's national development.
The knowledge will serve as reference for the party to frame policies, he added. "Jokowi will assign his ministers to attend discussions during the PDIP congress as informants," he affirmed. (WDY)
