To Maintain Stability, Society Must Support the Transition of Government and the Protection of the Elected President.
Jakarta – A political observer from Bung Karno University stated that the public must support the transition of power from President Jokowi to the elected President Prabowo Subianto in order to maintain national stability. In addition, the public must fully support the priority programs of the elected President Prabowo Subianto so that the wheels of government can run smoothly and there is continuity for programs that directly impact the grassroots.
This was stated by Political Observer from Bung Karno University, Faisyal Chaniago, when asked by the media regarding the government transition in Jakarta.
According to him, all parties must support this government transition, including political elites, so that there is no “political shock” and Indonesia can remain stable during this period.
All parties, including political elites, must support the handover of government leadership. Do not disrupt the transition from Jokowi to Prabowo so that Indonesia can navigate this crucial period, said Faisyal.
The elected President’s mandate, Prabowo Subianto, must also receive full support from the public, including: strengthening the Pancasila ideology, food independence (self-sufficiency), energy, infrastructure development (Indonesia Centric), increasing job opportunities, and downstreaming, he explained.
President Jokowi’s program must be continued by the elected President Prabowo Subianto so that it doesn’t end up like before, where changing Presidents also meant changing policies, he said.
Meanwhile, the Director General of Budget at the Ministry of Finance, Isa Rachmatawarta, stated that there are 8 spending priorities in line with the elected President Prabowo Subianto, which have been aligned with the national priorities in the Government Work Plan (RKP) 2025.

The third priority, said Isa, is the development of infrastructure and the improvement of quality job opportunities, encouraging entrepreneurship, and developing the creative industry.
The fourth program focuses on strengthening human resource development, science, technology, education, health, achievements, and gender equality.
Fifth, continue downstream processing and develop resource-based industries to enhance added value, he said.
