House of Representatives speaker dan Golkar Party general chairman Setya Novanto (left) and former general chairman of the party Aburizal Bakrie.

The chairman of a political party is a symbol. Problem in the party’s leadership will simultaneously affect the party as a whole. It happened to Setya Novanto and Golkar.

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) on Monday formally detained Novanto as a suspect in the high profile electronic ID graft case. The number-one man of the yellow-jacketed party ended up wearing the KPK’s orange vest.
