  "account": "The House of Representatives is advancing plans to impeach Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka due to uncertainty surrounding his resignation. Over 100 lawmakers, representing all eight political parties, have signed a petition alleging Gibran no longer meets the Vice Presidency requirements, which could lead to impeachment proceedings. Gerindra Party lawmaker Azis Subekti explained that public concerns and the desire to resolve the matter quickly influenced the party's support. The House leadership received the petition during a meeting on Wednesday, affirming its eligibility for a decision during Thursday's plenary session. Speculation grew about lawmakers being instructed to return to Jakarta swiftly to ensure the motion passed. According to the existing law, the motion requires signatures from at least 25 lawmakers and approval in a plenary session with a two-thirds majority voting in favor.",
