TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - ZULHENDRI Hasan was stunned to see Golkar General Chairman Setya Novanto`s rapid recovery while undergoing treatment at the Premier Hospital in Jatinegara, East Jakarta. In just three days, Setya had regained his good health. "He improved significantly. Of course, we are grateful," said the Golkar deputy general treasurer last Wednesday.

Golkar Party Secretary-General Idrus Marham offered conflicting information, saying that Setya was afflicted with vertigo and sinusitis. Zulhendri visited Setya because of the severity of the latter’s illness, first on September 26. When he arrived at 10am, a nurse directed him to the third floor. 

On the third floor are an infant care room, an obstetrics ward, and a non-intensive care cardiac ward, where Setya had a number of cables attached to his body. "I don’t know what the cables were and didn’t ask," he said.

The photo was used in a great number of memes, which angered Setya Novanto, who then reported these memes to the police, who moved quickly to name one meme creator as a suspect.
