Our<br>\nHouse seats dropped from 153 to 109 after the party leadership<br>\nfired dissenting members prior to the elections last year. If<br>\nmore members face dismissal due to their disagreement with party<br>\nleaders, how many more seats we will lose?\" Soetardjo said.<\/p>\n<p>Representing the reform group during the meeting were its<br>\nleader Roy BB Janis and Noviantika Nasution. Senior PDI-P figures<br>\nAbdul Madjid, Amin Arjoso and Subagyo Anam were also present. --<br>\nAntara<\/p>",
