Megawati: PDIP‘s Strength Remains Unbeaten, Jakarta Victory a Testament
In a spirited address at the PDIP’s 52nd anniversary celebration, Chairperson Megawati Soekarnoputri credited her party’s resilience and winning tactics, citing victories in Jakarta and Bali Pillkada as recent strides. Speaking at the event held at the PDIP School in Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta, the esteemed leader confidently asserted, "PDI Perjuangan’s power is undeniable. Who would have thought? We were on the brink of tears, but look at us now, conquering Jakarta!"
Megawati, accompanied by Jakarta’s newly elected governor, Pramono Anung, laughed heartily as they recalled their electoral triumph. The jubilant atmosphere in the room was palpable, with party members celebrating PDIP’s latest victory. Megawati humorously shared her thought process leading up to the Jakarta win, "I decided to show off my ‘silat’ skills, and here we are!"
The seasoned politician also touched on PDIP’s victory in Bali’s gubernatorial race, attributing it to strategic planning. She playfully recounted, "We outsmarted them with our ‘silat’ moves. We were decisive, and our opponents stood no chance."
However, Megawati was quick to acknowledge PDIP’s losses in Central Java, East Java, and North Sumatra. She remained undeterred, asserting, "PDIP may have lost in those provinces, but we remain strong in the districts and cities."
Megawati also shared anecdotes about persuading Pramono to accept the Jakarta governorship post, revealing, "I had to insist as our Chairman. Despite initial reluctance, Pramono eventually agreed, and I’m glad he did!"
