‘Please don’t talk about that yet’: Indonesia President Prabowo Subianto responds to calls for a second term

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto has stated that he will defend his position only if he achieves substantial results in his first term in response to calls for him to battle a second word nearly eight weeks into his administration.

Prabowo, 73, made the statement on Saturday ( May 17 ) during a speech to members of his Gerindra party’s youth organization, Tunas Indonesia Raya, in Jakarta, during which delegates expressed their support for a two-term presidency. &nbsp,

” I heard some of you say” Pravbowo two terms,” so please don’t speak up about that. According to local media outlet Jakarta Globe, he said at Hotel Borobudur,” We have not even completed a year of this mandate.”

The government’s remarks, according to local media, came as a result of growing political debate in ruling parties regarding the 2029 national poll.

Past defense minister Prabowo was inaugurated in October and won the presidential election in February of last year on his second attempt. &nbsp,

He once more stated that keeping promises, no ensuring political viability, was his top priority. &nbsp,

I won’t work once more if I can determine that I haven’t accomplished what I set out to accomplish. ” If I feel like I’ve failed, I didn’t run for re-election.”

He has set a lofty goal of increasing the rate of growth to 8 % by the end of his first term from the current rate of 5 %, which he has set as his ambitious goal. &nbsp,

The establishment of the Danantara sovereign wealth fund is one of the methods his government has taken to help this endeavor. &nbsp,

He has even cut apparently about US$ 4 billion from the state budget, and he is reportedly donating some of the money to his completely, nutritious meal initiative.

IN ANTI-GRAFT DRIVE,” WILL NOT BACK DOWN”

Prabowo also pledged on Saturday that his administration’s anti-graft onslaught will continue despite law enforcement facing harassment while conducting corruption investigations.

” I’ve heard a few information,” I said. Some have witnessed people entering their homes, having their vehicles followed, and yet being photographed… Let me be clear, though: We won’t ever step over. I’ll not let go of this.”

He claimed that state goods worth tens of billions of rupiah were recovered in the first six weeks of his name.

In addition to director Rahayu Saraswati Djojohadikusumo, who is also his daughter, members of his group’s children aircraft pledged full support if Prabowo work again. &nbsp,

His “vision is clear – zero extreme poverty, 8 % economic growth,” Saraswati said on Saturday,” and he is already acting on it.” &nbsp,

We think the basis for a strong business may be laid, irrespective of world challenges, in four and a half years.

Saraswati expressed confidence in stability, noting that her youngsters wing is convinced that voters will support Prabowo for pioneering initiatives like the free, affordable housing and efforts to achieve agricultural self-sufficiency. &nbsp,

The children wing’s chair added that it would not run for president and would wait for Prabowo’s ruling. &nbsp,
