“Pak Ganjar will speak when he is awarded. Yes, if. In this context, we are talking about the scale of priorities that all party cadres must go down to pursue the highest results among the people,” Hasto said in a written statement on Wednesday. (April 17, 2020). 19/10/2022).

“For the nation and the state, everyone claims that all party cadres are ready, because that is the function of why we have party discipline,” Hasto said.

“If I look at Pak Ganjar’s answer, it’s clear, ‘For the nation and the state, everything must be ready,'” Hasto said.
