ppp responds to this by stating that "syihabudin's term as the chairman of gpk has expired, and therefore they were deemed illegal". gpk's act in jambi and central java wasn't recognized by the ppp, and ppp considered them as a group of leftovers from the ppp faction of humphrey djemat that supports prabowo, and struggled against the government backed faction of romahurmuziy that supports jokowi. this support showed that even though the conflict between djan humphrey and romahurmuziy has been reconciled through the 3rd "mukernas", the conflict still exists in the grassroots of ppp. ppp resolved this problem by refreshing the ranks of gpk and held the consolidation of branches of gpk, to support jokowi as president, and align the visions of ppp "underbouws".
