INDUSTRY.co.id - Jakarta - The Hanura Party Wings Organization, the People's Conscience Youth Movement (Gemura) said the United States's refusal of TNI Commander General Gatot Nurmantyo was an insult to Indonesia.

"Although the US ambassador has apologized but this is not enough, Gemura urged the relevant authorities in America in this case the US Kemenlu should give a detailed explanation to Indonesia because the people are now wondering," he said.
