JAKARTA (Yosefardi) – Tjatur Sapto Edy has resigned from his position as the Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN) faction at the House of Representatives (DPR).
In a press briefing on Wednesday (Mar. 11), Tjatur revealed that he has submitted his resignation letter to the new PAN Chairman Zulkifli Hasan yesterday.
Tjatur supported Hatta Rajasa to get his second term in the PAN chairmanship congress early this month. Hatta, however, lost to Zulkifli.
Prior to Tjatur’s resignation, another Hatta’s supporter Dradjat Wibowo also resigned from his position as PAN Deputy Chairman. (haryantosuharman@yosefardi.com)
