Jakarta – The factions of Golkar Party, United Development Party (PPP), Group Representatives and Regional Representatives have rejected the idea of revoking the Provisional People's Consultative Assembly (MPRS) Decree No 25/1966 on the dissolution of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI).

"Golkar faction has no doubt that the decree must stay," its leader, Amidhan, said during the 3rd plenary meeting of the annual MPR session here Saturday.

PPP faction spokesman, Lukman Hakim Saefudin, said Communism, Marxism and Leninism are against Indonesia's Pancasila state ideology.
