BERNAMA – Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto emphasised the importance of ensuring that the budget cuts implemented across state institutions do not negatively affect public services, particularly those directly tied to the people’s rights, reported ANTARA news agency.
Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR) Sufmi Dasco Ahmad shared this directive after a meeting of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) Plus at the President’s residence in Bogor district, West Java, recently.
The meeting saw the participation from ministers serving in the Red and White Cabinet, regional heads, and leaders of political parties that form KIM Plus.
Ahmad, who is also chair of the central board of the Prabowo-led Gerindra Party, informed the media that at the gathering, the president also expressed his gratitude to all participants for their support during his administration’s first 100 days in office.
As the leader of the Gerindra Party, Prabowo invited political figures within KIM Plus to his residence for the meeting.
Leaders of political parties and elected regional heads from their parties began arriving at the President’s private residence after Friday prayers.
KIM Plus is a coalition of political parties that supported the Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka pair in the 2024 presidential election, as well as former opposition parties that later decided to support the new administration.
The parties include Gerindra, the National Mandate Party (PAN), the Democratic Party, the Golkar Party, the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), the Crescent and Star Party (PBB), the Gelora Party, the Just and Prosperous People’s Party (PRIMA), the National Democratic Party, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), and the National Awakening Party (PKB).
