Surya Paloh Opens Path for Gibran Impeachment in DPR

NasDem Party chairman Surya Paloh opened the possibility that a process to impeach Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka could be brought to the DPR if all constitutional requirements have been met. The statement came amid mounting political pressure after rulings by the Mahkamah Konstitusi and Mahkamah Agung on the dispute over Gibran’s diploma or education equivalency certificate. Paloh said the situation is not something to welcome with joy, but a matter of concern because Prabowo Subianto and Gibran have served only about two years of their term through 2029. Earlier, PDIP Secretary-General Hasto Kristiyanto also said communication among DPR factions had become more intense and public calls to impeach Gibran were growing.
