Watch out for the exodus
However, that influence was not that great. This is because PAN has not only depended on several figures.
“My guess is not too big. So far, PAN can relatively institutionalize itself as a party that does not depend solely on one or two figures,” said Dodi, Kuskrido’s nickname, to Kompas.com, recently.
With his ability to self-institutionalize it makes brand PAN has been formed.

However, Dodi said that PAN must be aware of the exodus of administrators to the Ummat Party.
“With regard to voters, PAN does not need to worry. But if an exodus of the board occurs, it is something to be worried about. It is difficult to find the board and that is part of the requirements of the law too,” he explained.

Compete with other parties
The roof of the General Election Commission (KPU) building on Jl. Imam Bonjol, Jakarta, since Thursday (29 April 1999) has been fitted with flags of 48 political parties participating in the 1999 General Election. –
Dodi predicts that the Ummah Party will find it difficult to become a big party and compete with other parties.
“Get away threshold maybe. However, it is difficult to become a big party because you compete with many other parties, “he said.
Previously, Deputy Chairperson of PAN Viva Yoga Mauladi said that officially, Amien Rais was no longer part of the PAN family following the announcement of the new party.

“This means that officially and legally constitutional Mr. Amien Rais has left and left PAN. Pak Amien as one of the founders and former Chairman of PAN 2000-2005 is no longer part of the PAN family,” said Viva.
He believes that cadres and administrators will not leave PAN and join the Ummat Party. This is because being a member of the legislature and executive is not easy.
“This causes them to think realistically as politicians,” he said.
