Din Syamsuddin was, always has been, and always will be an Islamist. But then Amien Rais is an Islamist too. PAN was hijacked by Amien Rais almost at the same time it was established and it never was a true inclusive party. Din Syamsuddin steering Muhammadiyah to the far-right is a continuation of what Amien Rais did during his leadership. It’s on the shoulders of the young progressive wing in Muhammadiyah the hopes lie.
