Golkar ready to be opposition, says Aburizal
Golkar Party chief Aburizal “Ical” Bakrie says his party is ready to leave its comfort zone as part of the government and become the next opposition party if it fails to gain a share of power.
"Our democracy does not recognize an opposition. But if by becoming an opposition you mean being outside the Cabinet, Golkar is ready for that. Golkar will serve as a party that provides constructive criticism to the government," Aburizal told journalists on the sidelines of Golkar's campaign rally in Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara, on Wednesday.
