PDI fraction member Laksmiari Priyonggo interrupted the Minister of Research and Technology BJ Habibie during constitutional meeting at the National Parliament saying: "Although the speaker states that 317 people are present, in fact there are only 75 members of the DPR here or less than 15% of a total of 500 members. We cannot lie to the people". She asked that the meeting be postponed. When the majority did not agree, she chose to "walk out" saying to journalists: "I pity the one entrusted with the mandate who must later sight a law which in reality is not supported by the people".

Activists then took her to the entrance of the parliament to meet other anti-nuclear demonstrators outside. Anti-nuclear banners and posters were unfurled. The chair of the PDI fraction, Fatimah Achmad [Suryadi's camp - JB] apologized for "her actions" to Habibie who said: "Its' okay, that is 'dynamics'".
