Previously, Secretary General Gerindra Sugiono confirmed that Noel was not his party cadre. Sugiono explained that the Gerindra party distinguishes between cadres and members. He said Noel was not a framework, but a party member. “So like this, in Gerindra there is something like a member, there’s something like cadres,” Sugiono told reporters in the presidential palace, Jakarta, on Monday (8/25). Sugiono explained that every framework was needed to take the revival process. Meanwhile, he said, Noel did not take the revival process. Sugiono said Gerindra would evaluate membership after Noel became a KPK suspect and removed from the Vice minister. He said his party would recall Kta Noel. “Now the process we do will of course evaluate the membership, and if it was a suspect yesterday, it was also rejected as a cabinet member, I think the process in the party will also follow soon,” he said.
