Jakarta (Antara) - Chairman of the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) Zulkifli Hasan said he would soon invite former MPR chairman Amien Rais for the presidential inauguration on October 20. "We will invite him probably tomorrow (Sunday). In essence, we will meet him before October 20," Zulkifli stated here on Friday. He said he believed that as a statesman, Amien would attend the inauguration, which, according to him, was a feast of democracy and get-together of national figures. "All the statesmen we invited will attend the ceremony. I hope, Mr. Amien will join Mr. Habibie, Mrs. Mega, Mr. SBY, and Mr. Boediono, who have accepted our invitation and will attend the inauguration" he added.
