Jakarta – Presidential candidate number 2, Prabowo Subianto, emphasizes his commitment to siding with the people, especially those facing economic difficulties. At the ‘Press Dialogue and Presidential Candidates’ event at the Press Council Building, Jakarta on Thursday (4/1/2024), Prabowo stressed the importance of taking concrete actions, especially for children from weak economic backgrounds.
Prabowo asserted that the flagship program of the Prabowo-Gibran pair, such as providing free lunch and milk, must be immediately implemented to directly benefit the people.
“This is about necessity, this is about the future of the nation,” he added.
In carrying out the program, Prabowo ensured that Indonesia has the capacity to implement it. Referring to the budget for social assistance and education reaching trillions of rupiah, Prabowo highlighted the importance of providing meals at schools as part of the social assistance program.
In response to the large budget used for the construction of the new capital city (IKN), Prabowo is confident that Indonesia is capable of managing it. He emphasized that the development of the IKN is part of the country’s infrastructure that requires a large investment.
“We can manage it. Let’s not be swayed by brainwashing that Indonesia is a poor country,” he firmly stated.
In a discussion held by the Indonesian Journalists Association (PWI) at the Press Council Building, Prabowo emphasized that the large budget used for the IKN project should be seen as part of long-term investment. He hopes that the public will not be influenced by negative narratives about Indonesia’s ability to develop the project.
Prabowo stressed the importance of not being influenced by negative opinions about Indonesia’s ability to manage the development of IKN. For him, the belief that Indonesia is capable of achieving success and managing large projects like IKN is very important. (SENOPATI)
