Jakarta (B2B) - Ruhut Sitompul menanggapi hasil survei Lingkaran Survei Indonesia (LSI) dengan berseloroh. "Gue tanya, aku maling enggak? Itu karena bapak gua mendidik gua baik. Didik anaknya jadi profesional," kata politisi Partai Demokrat di Komisi III DPR ketika dihubungi di Jakarta, Senin (19/11).

Ruhut tidak menampik kenyataan bahwa citra DPR saat ini benar-benar terpuruk lantaran ulah sekelompok oknum anggota Dewan di DPR maupun DPRD yang terjerat kasus korupsi. Kondisi itu diperparah dengan kasus amoral anggota Dewan yang tersebar di publik melalui video porno.

Politisi yang juga pengacara ini mengharapkan orang tua tidak skeptis menghadapi kondisi saat ini. Pasalnya, pendapat orang tua yang seperti itu berarti ´kalah sebelum perang´ padahal belum tentu begitu selama mendapat didikan yang baik dari orang tuanya.

"Orang tua takut anaknya di DPR ikut hanyut jadi perampok. Kalau gua enggak, anak gua harus jadi senator," ungkap Ruhut yang dikenal dengan sebutan ´raja minyak´ lantaran aktingnya di sinetron.

Ruhut mengklaim dirinya ´belum ternoda´ oleh praktek kolusi, korupsi dan nepotisme (KKN) di DPR. "Gua tanya, aku maling enggak?" tanya Ruhut lagi.

Jakarta (B2B) - Ruhut Sitompul comments on the result of LSI survey jokingly. “I ask you, do I steal? It is because my father taught me well. Teach your children to be a professional worker,” says the politican of Democrat Party in Jakarta on Monday (19/11).

Ruhut does not deny the fact that the present image of DPR is really degraded caused by the behaviors of some personnel in DPR of DPRD involved in corruption case. It is worsened with immoral cases of legislative members spread in public through porn video.

The politician-cum-lawyer hopes that parents would not be skeptical in facing this condition because such opinion means that parents lose the war before fighting, whereas it is probably not so as long as the children receive good teaching from their parents.

“Parents are afraid that their children working as legislative members change into thieves. For me, I am not. My child must be a senator,” said Ruhut, popularly known as ‘raja minyak’ due to his acting in a soap opera.

Ruhut claims that he is still ‘pure’ and free from corruption, collusion and nepotism practices in the House. “I ask you, do I steal?” asks Ruhut again.

It is reported that out of 1,200 respondents, 56.43% reject their children’s wish to become legislative member in 2014 Election, only 37.62% of parents who want their children to sit in parliament and 5.95% do not answer.

The figure is different from the survey in 2008. At that time, most respondents or 59.22% wanted their children to become legislative members, only 31.32% who rejected and 9.46% did not answer.
