In this regard, the president of the DPP’s National Awakening Party (PKB), Faisol Riza, emphasized that this does not mean that those who are not crazy rich cannot join the cabinet. Only their efforts should be greater than those of the crazy rich. But, according to him, there is something more important than that, namely how Jokowi can choose these crazy rich people.
“The question we need to ask ourselves is, was it true that they were elected by Pak Jokowi or were they actually forcing Pak Jokowi to vote?” Faisol said in an online discussion by the Forum of Political Journalists (FJP) titled “Crazy Rich Who Enter Cabinet: Reading Plutocracy in the Jokowi Era “, Sunday (12/27/2020).

Faisol admitted that this question was a bit provocative, but invited the webinar participants to review the situation in the 2019 presidential elections. There are 3 groups that support Jokowi, political parties (parpol) that have tickets for the presidential elections, volunteers they have worked hard and many bite their fingers. because they have been neglected and the entrepreneurs, mostly young entrepreneurs, have contributed to helping Jokowi become president.
“This seems, of course, as an exception, Sandi and maybe some Lutfi (part of the presidential and external competitors),” he said.
Hearing the explanation from the ISEAS researcher Made Supriatma, Faisol said, there is a kind of new corporate power that is currently growing and trying to seize power, be it for the 2024 presidential elections, for themselves or for the Indonesian nation . So these are the new and young elites who will fill the 20-30 years that will intersect between business, economics and politics.
“These are the names that will exist in power and business,” Faisol said. (Read it too: Sandi enters the Jokowi cabinet, who benefits in the presidential elections of 2024? )
For this reason, this Senayan politician prefers to be suspicious of those who coerce or force Jokowi to choose them to enter the cabinet. Jokowi may not have too many options with a COVID-19 situation like this, where the Indonesian economy is part of a collapsing global economy and is trying to find a way out at the slightest opportunity.
“If we look at various trips by members of our cabinet to various parts of the world, there has been a reorganization process and there have been a number of right-wing Islamic political forces, I think the message is clear that this power is now, this cabinet now it is very friendly to the global fund, as much as possible. “attracting global investment funds and the like to enter Indonesia. This is what Pak Jokowi seems to be doing, “he explained.
In various political events, for example, pressure on the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI), various conspiracy assessments that the government will open political relations with Israel, as several Middle Eastern countries have done, according to the president of the Commission VI of the DPR, aside from this issue, is more willing to see that this cabinet can effectively be the cabinet that Jokowi hopes can function in 2021, where Jokowi applies two pressures, successful vaccines and a faster economic recovery.
“Vaccination with the change of Minister of Health with Budi Sadikin may be more practical, because as Vice Minister of BUMN, Budi Sadikin has been quite involved in the management of COVID-19, providing Athletes’ House and building modular hospitals, consolidating state hospitals out of 70 hospitals in a parent company, where IHC (Indonesia Healthcare Corporation) is the leading company, “said Faisol.
“The purchase of vaccines for Sinovac, Sinopharm and Astrzeneca failed because the previous Minister of Health did not want to sign. These are all notes,” he said.
