President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono canceled a meeting with the Bank Century inquiry right Team of Nine which was scheduled at the State Palace here on Friday afternoon.Presidential spokesman Julian Aldrin Pasha said at the presidential office earlier in the day that President Yudhoyono canceled the meeting to shun possible misinterpretations that he wanted to intervene in the process of Bank Century inquiry right.
Julian said that the president on Thursday was contacted by Anas Urbaningrum, chairman of the Democrat Party faction at the House of Representatives (DPR) to extend an invitation from the Team of Nine who would like to meet with him in his capacity as head of state.
"President Yudhoyono said he was ready for the meeting," Julian said.
But on Friday, a national print media reported that the Team of Nine was invited by President Yudhoyono for a meeting at the State Palace.
"The president deplores the media report because the report was not true. Therefore the meeting scheduled to be held on Friday afternoon was canceled because of the media report. In order to shun a misinterpretation or assumption that the president wanted to intervene in the task of the Team of Nine, he found it better to cancel the meeting," Julian said.
But Julian added that he remained uncertain whether the meeting of the Team of Nine with President Yudhoyono would be rescheduled or not.
"There is no indication whether the meeting will be rescheduled or not," Juian said.
Meanwhile, one of the team`s members Maruarar Sirait said the cancelation of the team`s meeting with the president was just a matter of time which had yet to be fixed.
"We do not only want to meet President Yudhoyono but we also want to do the same with former President Megawati Soekarnoputri, Nahdlatul Ulama chairman Hasyim Muzadi, and other prominent figures because we want the meeting to be open in its manner," Maruarar Sirait said.(ANTARA News)
