From the Stage to Parliament: Pasha Ungu, the Journey of a Musician Becoming a Politician

In 2015, Pasha decided to take a break from music and dive into the world of politics. This decision surprised many people, but Pasha had a strong reason: he wanted to contribute more to society. Together with Hidayat, the mayoral candidate for Palu, Pasha ran for the position of Deputy Mayor of Palu in the 2015 regional elections. The pair successfully won, and Pasha was inaugurated as the Deputy Mayor of Palu for the 2016-2021 term.

As Deputy Mayor, Pasha took his duties very seriously. One of the major challenges he faced was when Palu was hit by an earthquake and tsunami in 2018. Pasha was very active in assisting disaster management and ensuring the recovery of the area went smoothly.

After completing his term as Deputy Mayor, Pasha expanded his wings in the political arena. In the 2024 elections, he successfully became a member of the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR RI). The latest news is that Pasha has been placed in Commission VIII, which focuses on religious affairs, social issues, disaster management, and women's empowerment.

Although busy in the political world, Pasha never strays far from music. He still often performs at certain events, whether to reminisce with Ungu fans or at charity events, as he often shares on Instagram. His humble attitude keeps him loved by many, both as a musician and a politician.

Pasha is also known for being active in building connections with the community through various social activities. His down-to-earth and energetic persona is a unique attraction in the eyes of the public. This proves that the transition from the entertainment world to the political arena is not always easy, but Pasha has been able to navigate it well and professionally.

From a successful musician to an influential public official, Pasha proves that he is a multitalented figure.

Now, his name is not only known as an idol on the music stage but also as a leader who strives to make a positive impact on the wider community.

Pasha Ungu's journey is proof that anyone can transform and contribute in various fields. From the concert stage to the parliamentary stage, Pasha has made an extraordinary mark that deserves appreciation.
