DEMOCRAT PARTY TO MAINTAIN COALITION IN SPITE OF DIFFERENCES
Jakarta, Feb 24 (ANTARA) - The Democrat Party (PD) will maintain its coalition with other parties although some of the latter held different views on the Bank Century case, a spokesman said.
"The Democrat Party prefers to remain friends (with its coalition partners) and will maintain the coalition despite the differences," Anas Urbaningrum, a PD associate chairman, said here Wednesday.
"The differences are still about a matter at committee level and not something at government level," he said.
Several party factions in the House committee investigating the Bank Century bailout decided to mention the names of those considered responsible for the controverial Bank Century bailout in in their final views on the committee's findings on Tuesday.
Anas who is the chairman of the Democrat Party faction in the House of Representatives (DPR) said it was not proper for the DPR as a political insitution to mention the names of state officials allegedly responsible in the matter.
"The mentioning of names is inappropriate and incorrect. Names may be mentioned only after a legal process has taken place and even then is done according to a certain norm, namely by giving only their initials," he said.
Therefore, the Democrat Party faction had not mentioned any names in its final view on the inquiry committee's findings, said Anas who is also a member of the inquiry committee.
He hoped the coalition partners would eventually arrive at the same views as the Democrat Party's.
However if they remained having different views, the Democrat Party would maintain them as coalition partners.
He said the stances that had been demonstrated by party factions in the committee had provided a momentum for the Democrat Party to strengthen the coalition.
"The Democrat Party will intensify its political communications with its coalition partners," he said.
The Golkar Party and Prosperous Justice Party which are members of the ruling coalition mentioned the names of a number of serving and former monetary officials as the parties that must be held accountable for the Bank Century scandal in their final statements on the case on Tuesday night.
According to the Democrat Party no violations had been committed in connection with the bank's bailout in 2008 worth Rp6.7 trillion.***
