Onesecondnews.COM, Jakarta – The National Conference (Munas) of the People's Information Center (LIRA) in Batam led Andi Syafrani, SHI, MCCL, CLA, CM, SHEELL to be elected as the new LIRA President replacing Ollies Datau.
This is my message to Andi Syafrani, "Nil volentibus arduum", nothing is difficult for those who have the desire. This sentence was revealed by the chairman of the LIRA National Conference III, Frans Watu after closing the last plenary session.
The strength of LIRA as a Non-Governmental Organization is in its structure that uses a shadow of government, usually such as government structures down to the Village/Kelurahan level.

As a lawyer, Andi often criss-crossed the Constitutional Court. Several regional head election disputes (Pilkada) that he handled always ended in victory. He has won many election disputes, so it is fitting for this young figure to be known as a legendary lawyer in the Constitutional Court.
It is still warm in our minds when the 2019 presidential election entered a dispute in the Constitutional Court. At that time the Jokowi-Ma'ruf Amin pair appointed Andi Syafrani and 33 lawyers registered in the Jokowi-Ma'ruf Amin defense team against the lawsuit submitted by the Prabowo Subianto-Sandiago Uno pair. As a result, the Jokowi-Ma'ruf Amin team won the lawsuit.
Andi's magnetism and skill when conveying his vision and mission in front of the LIRA National Conference participants were able to hypnotize the voters who were present. The Pontianak child who always looks humble with his trademark smile, was finally elected democratically.
LIRA's National Conference III in Batam, Riau Islands has ended. His intelligence and experience as an activist are expected by LIRA cadres and the Indonesian people, whether they are able to bring big changes for LIRA to become a modern organization. We are waiting for the cabinet which will be drawn up with the formatur team.
