PKS seeks House talks on Gibran's fate after court ruling

The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) is seeking discussions with other political parties in the House of Representatives to address the legitimacy of Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka, following a court ruling that questioned his educational qualifications. PKS secretary-general Muhammad Kholid revealed the move was prompted by Chairman Al Muzzammil Yusuf, who instructed the party to determine the next steps of other parties regarding the controversy surrounding Gibran's high school diploma.

Kholid informed The Jakarta Post that PKS aims to convey public concerns on the issue through the legislative process. However, the party has not yet decided whether to initiate a right of inquiry, which would enable the House to investigate matters of significant public importance. The House is currently on recess until early November, and Kholid stated that the party will observe how the situation unfolds in the next sitting period.
