However, her presence immediately became the center of attention because previously Felicya was criticized by netizens for her posts that were suspected to be pro-Israel.

Therefore, her presence at Rembuk Warga was criticized by several netizens. However, Zaskia Adya Mecca, as a friend, did not stay silent seeing Felicya being flooded with criticism about it.
