Viral Dorce Gamalama Asks for Medical Assistance from Megawati Soekarnoputri, This is What Her Friend Says

Kapanlagi.com - Lately, a video of Dorce Gamalama asking for medical assistance from Megawati Soekarnoputri has gone viral. As it is known, Dorce Gamalama is currently battling diabetes.

Regarding the video uploaded on Dorce Gamalama's personal Instagram account @dg_kcp, her friend Hetty Soendjaya said it was normal. Because Dorce Gamalama herself has a close relationship with Megawati Soekarnoputri when she served as Vice President and President.

"Maybe at that time she sang at the palace when Bu Mega was vice president and president, she said that," said Hetty Soendjaya when met in the Cawang area, East Jakarta, on Wednesday (19/1).

"Maybe she remembers it like that, just like a child with their parent. Whether she did it on a whim, we don't know, only she knows. It seems fine if she wants to do that," she continued.

As for Dorce Gamalama's request for assistance with treatment costs, Hetty Soendjaya cannot comment further. Because until now there has been no response from Megawati Soekarnoputri.

"As I said earlier, we don't know what her intentions are, only she knows the purpose and goal. If we speculate, we are afraid of being wrong. So, if it is said that she made a video and shared it, it is true, but her intentions are known only to her. I also don't know whether she has responded or not, I haven't heard," she said.

2. Dorce's Current Condition

Hetty Soendjaya also explained Dorce Gamalama's current condition, which has improved but she still cannot speak fluently and her leg is still swollen, so she cannot engage in activities.

"Yesterday's development is that we just visited her at her house, and she is doing better. Although her speech is still stuttering and unclear. Sometimes when she speaks quickly, she still stumbles, and her leg is still swollen, so she cannot engage in any activities," concluded Hetty Soendjaya.

3. Taken to the Hospital

Last October 2021, Dorce Gamalama was taken to the hospital once again. At that time, Dorce's condition was said to have dropped again due to his history of diabetes.

However, it seems that Dorce has now improved and is active at home. Yesterday (30/12), comedian and presenter Sule came to Dorce Gamalama's residence to visit.
