Jakarta (ANTARA) - Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR) Sufmi Dasco Ahmad said that many DPR members from various factions wanted to voice their aspirations regarding Vice President (Wapres) Gibran Rakabuming Raka through mechanisms stipulated in the parliamentary rules.

However, he said the DPR would only begin its new session on Tuesday (November 10). On Monday (November 9), the House was still in recess, during which members were carrying out activities in their respective electoral districts.

“Amid the current developments, many community organizations and DPR members from various factions indeed want to convey their aspirations regarding the Vice President through the mechanisms available in the DPR,” Dasco said at the parliamentary complex in Jakarta on Monday.

He said the DPR leadership had not yet held a meeting, nor had the House's Consultative Body (Badan Musyawarah) convened with representatives of the factions. Meanwhile, he was still waiting for the full ruling from the Supreme Court on matters related to the vice president.

“We cannot yet announce what steps the DPR will take,” he said. He added that he would wait for developments once the DPR resumed its session.

He said further processes could only proceed after the DPR entered its session period, ensuring that all steps followed the mechanisms stipulated in the applicable regulations and parliamentary rules of procedure.

“Informal discussions among the factions are still ongoing because we have not yet entered the session period. They are seeking a forum established through the proper mechanisms and will request formal deliberations,” he said.
