BANTUL, KOMPAS — The decline in electability and emerging public negativity for the Golkar Party have become determining factors for the party to hold a national extraordinary meeting (Munaslub). A new general chairman will be chosen at the Munaslub to replace Setya Novanto, who has been named as a suspect in the e-ID corruption case. As of Sunday (3/12), 31 out of 34 provinces had already shown their support for a Munaslub.

Golkar West Java Regional Representatives (DPDs) chairman Dedi Mulyadi said that during a meeting of Golkar’s provincial DPD heads, it appeared that the Munaslub would be held on Dec. 16 and 17. According to plans, they will submit the proposal to Golkar\'s Central Executive Board on Wednesday (6/12).
