Moeldoko made a speech at the Extraordinary Democratic Party Congress after being elected as General Chair, in Deli Serdang, North Sumatra, Friday (5/3/2021).
Over the last week, Covid-19 cases have again spiked at the global level. Countries are called upon to exercise alertness. Instead of getting geared up, the dynamism of politics in the country is even becoming turbulent.
The national political temperature rose after the split within the Democratic Party. The conflict surfaced in the public sphere and turned into an open war following the circulation of the term “coup d’etat”. The conflict grew more intense and ended up with an extraordinary congress in Deli Serdang, North Sumatra, on 5 March 2021. The Democratic Party has thus been divided. One side is led by Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) and the other is headed by Moeldoko.
