Elected by acclamation at Mubes XI

Japto Soelistyo Soerjosoemarno has been re-elected by acclamation as General Chairman of the National Leadership Council of Pemuda Pancasila (MPN PP). Japto's election took place at the 11th Grand Congress (Mubes), held simply in South Jakarta on Wednesday (14/10/2026). All provincial-level delegates attended the forum, which also served as a moment of organizational consolidation after a period of vacancy, as Japto stated in his speech. After being re-elected, Japto acted as the sole formatur and appointed 11 deputies to help assemble the new leadership of Pemuda Pancasila. He stressed that the formation of the board must be carried out objectively, taking into account the organization's needs, regional potential, communication skills, and the capacity to resolve problems. The complete leadership lineup is scheduled to be announced at the celebration of the organization's 67th anniversary (Harlah) on October 28, 2026.

Reaffirm support for the Prabowo administration

In his speech, Japto affirmed the organization's commitment to supporting the government program of President Prabowo Subianto. He said Pemuda Pancasila must take on the role of a government partner, including helping to implement programs that address people's needs and develop regional potential. Japto also highlighted the importance of developing regional potential based on the characteristics of nature, resources, and the capabilities of local communities. Development planning, he said, must be supported by in-depth surveys and research, not merely aerial monitoring.
