PKB Affirms Statement of Opinion Process Continues Despite Gibran's "Resistance" at the PTUN

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - The faction of the National Awakening Party (PKB) asserts that the process of submitting a Statement of Opinion (HMP) regarding Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka will continue despite legal proceedings underway at the State Administrative Court (PTUN).

PKB member Muhammad Khozin stated that the legal proceedings through PTUN and the political process in the House of Representatives (DPR) are two distinct matters.

"The PTUN process is legal, while the HMP in the DPR is something else. We also hear and respect what Mas Gibran has conveyed as vice president through the Minister of State Secretary earlier," said Gus Khozin to reporters after the PKB Award event at the DPP office on Tuesday (10/11/2026).

Khozin emphasized that each party should follow the appropriate procedures according to the mechanisms in place.

"In our view, let the processes unfold according to the existing mechanisms and as a political institution, we will also follow the procedures available," he said.

Khozin mentioned that the submission of the HMP currently meets the minimum requirements, as it is proposed by at least 25 DPR members from a minimum of two factions.

"I have repeatedly stated that we have discussed this with nearly all or 8 factions. We have been communicating informally," he added.

"Why do we refer to it as informal? Because it is not an institutional stance, so the discussions are person by person. But it is representative of 8 parties. Whether they all sign on or not? That will be revealed tomorrow or the day after. If not, then next week," he continued.
