Jakarta – President-elect Prabowo Subianto revealed that he is saddened when the people of Indonesia constantly criticize each other. Moreover, the criticism is directed at leaders without considering the work they have done.
“So I am sad if we have a tradition of always vilifying leaders, cursing and insulting,” said Prabowo when attending the closing of the IIIII National Democratic Party (NasDem) Congress at JCC, Senayan, Jakarta, on Tuesday (27/08).
“However, Mr. Jokowi’s achievements are amazing, with Indonesia being able to maintain 2.5% inflation,” he said.
“Where else can you find that? In the past three years, only a few countries have been able to achieve that. And this is an achievement that did not fall from the sky,” he continued.
Prabowo also mentioned that thanks to Jokowi’s leadership, Indonesia quickly recovered from the Covid-19 pandemic. According to him, this is an achievement that did not just happen out of nowhere.
“I am not defending, but I will say what is true is true, and what is wrong is wrong,” he explained.
In front of NasDem cadres, Prabowo also expressed his gratitude to the party for supporting his government. He hoped that unity could continue to be maintained to build the country.
“So, once again thank you NasDem for joining me. Let’s unite, work together, and prove that we are willing and able to join hands for the people of Indonesia,” said Prabowo. (RR)
