Jakarta - Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) is called threatened to walk out of the coalition if a minister in the cabinet reduced rations. But the Democratic Party (PD) considers the statement that only a mere bluff.

"It was just a bluff. I'm sure 99 percent of the MCC will remain in the coalition of ministers although reduced," said Head of the Department of Finance DPP Democratic Party (PD), Ikhsan Modjo, after a press conference at Warung Daun Jl Wolter Monginsidi, Jakarta, Monday (17 / 10 / 2011).

Ikhsan said, each party coalition did have a political contract with SBY. However, unethical if the parties to dictate the President to include or exclude certain names in the cabinet.

"Political contract can not shake the Act. The contract was set up political matters not provided for in the Act," said Ikhsan.

However Ikhsan submit all decisions to the MCC. According to him, if the PD will mengikhlaskan MCC really decide out of the coalition.

"Please only (outgoing coalition), we are sincere. However, if the MCC is still in the coalition also we accept with our hearts and we welcome with open arms," he concluded.
