JAKARTA (Yosefardi) – Coordinating Minister for Politics, Law &Security affairs General (ret) Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan has expressed his willingness to clarify to the ethics trial conducted by the ethics council (MKD) of the House of Representatives (DPR) over allegation of ethical violation committed by the House Speaker Setya Novanto, a politician from Golkar Party.

“I’m happy if the MKD called me (to testify), to settle everything,” said Luhut at his office on Wednesday (Dec. 2) afternoon.

The name of Luhut, who is also Golkar politician, has been mentioned about 66 times during the conversation between Novanto, businessman Mohammad Reza Chalid, and CEO of PT Freeport Indonesia Maroef Sjamsoeddin.

Full conversation between Novanto, Reza, and Maroef, has been already aired last night during the MKD’s trial. (haryantosuharman@yosefardi.com)
