Malang (B2B) - Akbar Tandjung, Ketua Dewan Pertimbangan Partai Golkar, Akbar Tandjung menyampaikan solusi atas terbelahnya kekuatan partai itu melalui islah atau rekonsiliasi yang diwujudkan dalam bentuk musyawarah nasional atau Munas bersama.
"Golkar harus segera mencari terobosan agar suara partai ini tidak semakin terancam, apalagi pemilihan kepala daerah sudah dimulai awal Maret nanti. Di Jatim saja ada 16 pilkada dan secara nasional akan digelar di 204 daerah," kata Akbar Tandjung di sela-sela pertemuan DPD Partai Golkar se-Jawa Timur di Malang, Sabtu.
Oleh karena itu, tegasnya, harus ada satu solusi yang baik agar permasalahan internal Partai Golkar segera diselesaikan dalam waktu relatif singkat.
"Kami berikan pertimbangan pada DPP, yakni melalui islah atau rekonsiliasi yang diwujudkan dengan munas bersama," tegasnya.
Menurut dia, munas itu harus disepakati kedua belah pihak (DPP versi Ancol dan versi Bali). Selain itu, kepanitiaan munas juga harus disepakati kedua belah pihak, termasuk pimpinannya.
"Munas pun harus diikuti seluruh jajaran partai. Tugas utama munas bersama hanya satu, pemilihan ketua umum dan kalau ini disepakati oleh semua pihak, siapa yang terpilih harus diakui itulah ketua umum yang benar-benar pasti," tegasnya.
Ia mengemukakan jika sampai akhir Januari 2015 munas bersama tak kunjung disepakati, suara Partai Golkar pada pilkada akan terancam. Sedangkan partai-partai lain sudah memanaskan mesin politiknya. (Ant)
Malang (B2B) - Chairman of the Advisory Board of Golkar party of Bali congress Akbar Tanjung calls for a joint national congress to end the split in the party leadership.
The party leadership has split into one elected in a national congress in Bali under Aburizal Bakrie and one elected in a national congress held later in Ancol, Jakarta, under Agung Laksono.
The two groups have agreed to a reconciliation but they have to agree on the way to reconcile.
"Golkar has to find a breakthrough immediately that the party would not be forsaken by the people, especially as elections for regional leaders would start early March," Akbar said here on Saturday.
There would be 204 regional elections all over the country including 16 in East Java, he told East Java regional leaders of the party.
There must be an immediate solution to the internal problem of the party, he repeated.
"We have offered a recommendation to be considered by the party central executive board (DPP) that is a reconciliation through a joint National Congress," he said.
The congress has to be approved by both sides so have the committee and the chairman of committee for the congress, he said.
"The duty of the joint congress is only to elect the general chairman. If agreed upon, who ever is elected has to be recognized as the new general chairman," he said.
He warned that if both sides failed to agree on the proposed joint national congress until the end of January 2015, Golkar would suffer a big loss in the regional elections.
"Meanwhile, other parties are already heating up the ir political engines," he said.
