Jakarta (Antara Bali) - The National Mandate Party (PAN) politician
Wanda Hamidah has hinted that the party may coalesce with the camp of
elected President and Vice President Joko Widodo and Jusuf Kalla
(Jokowi-JK).
"Nothing is impossible in the political realm, and so is the
coalition," Wanda stated in a text message on Tuesday night, signaling a
possibility of a coalition between PAN and the Jokowi-JK camp.
She remarked that the prospect came into sight after PAN General
Chairman Hatta Rajasa, the vice presidential candidate of Prabowo
Subianto, had a meeting with President-elect Joko Widodo on Monday
night.
Hatta met Jokowi at the residence of National Democrat Party (Nasdem) General Chairman Surya Paloh.
Wanda said she realized that the Jokowi-JK camp certainly has its
own considerations in determining the coalition, and the duos camp only
expects unconditional support from its coalition partners.
Therefore, she affirmed that if PAN was keen to join the coalition,
it would be majorly based on its sincerity to support the fulfillment
of political promises of the Jokowi-JK pair during the election
campaigns.
"So, the coalition is not based on just power-sharing at the
ministerial level," she stated, adding that the coalition of PAN with
the Jokowi-JK camp will have a positive impact on the nation.
"It is time for us to unite to overcome the problems of the nation
because PAN has the moral responsibility to make the government of
Jokowi-JK a success," she stressed.
Wanda was certain that Hatta Rajasa has ample experience in the
government, and therefore, he would be able to assist the Jokowi-JK
government.
According to PAN Central Executive Board Chairman Zulkifli Hasan,
Hatta had congratulated President-elect Jokowi during the gathering at
Surya Palohs residence.
"Hatta attended the gathering and congratulated Jokowi," Zulkifli,
who is also the forestry minister, noted in a text message on Monday
morning.
Zulkifli revealed that Hatta was present at the gathering with
Jokowi, but he did not provide further details about what the duo
discussed.
