However, she declined to reveal the reason for their visit.

"We don’t know yet. We were just invited. We are waiting for the vice president at 1 PM," Annetha added.

Around 10:17 WIB, three street vendor carts, including one selling meatballs, started arriving in the courtyard area of the Vice Presidential complex.

From the observations, two parking areas in front of the Vice Presidential Secretariat have already been cleared.

It is known that the Chairman of Commission II of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Habiburokhman, stated that Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka is set to visit the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) on Thursday (12/11/2026).

The Gerindra politician mentioned that Gibran will submit his resignation from the vice presidency, as the rumors have suggested in recent days.

"Following that, our figure, Benny Khabur Harman, will be allowed to speak first since he has an MPR event. At 11 AM, Gibran will submit his resignation letter," Habiburokhman said, drawing laughter from the meeting participants at the House of Representatives on Thursday.
