(Kapanlagi.com)Model Arzeti Bilbina says the late president Abdurrahman 'Gus Dur' Wahid inspired her to jump into politics.
'I decided to join The National Awakening Party [PKB] because the party's founder, Gus Dur, was my role model. From him, I learned about democracy and pluralism,' she said as quoted by kompas.com.
Arzeti said it was not an easy decision to choose a party.
'Before I joined the PKB, there were several parties that asked me to join them, but I was not ready. In addition, the PKB has given me room to keep doing what I am doing now,' she said.
Arzeti said she had made some preparations, including gaining political knowledge, before joining the party.
