“Yes (special instructions) but it’s impossible for me to tell you, it won’t be special anymore,” Deddy said.
Deddy acknowledged that he was grateful for the decision in case number 60/PUU-XXII/2024. He said that MK had returned to status.
“In the past we were constitutionally betrayed, now it seems that the Constitutional Court has restored the dignity of that institution, leading to a decision that we thinking that is very important,” said Deddy.
He previously said that there was a tendency to create empty boxes in various regions in the 2024 regional elections including the tendency to lock PDIP so that it could not move or nominate freely in the contest.
“I think this is an important victory for all of us, because with the new decision we can ensure that there will be more than one candidate couple in each region,” said Deddy.
“This means that the possibility of an empty box is getting smaller. And this will make political costs cheaper as well. This is definitely a victory for the people and indeed for democracy,” he concluded.
