JAKARTA – President Joko widodo (Jokowi) finally announced his latest cabinet composition in a cabinet shakeup announced at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta this afternoon. Jokowi has coincided with most of the names foreseen and included in the media through the announcement of his 6 new ministers.
The names of the new ministers include Tri Rismaharini as Minister of Social Affairs (Mensos), Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno as Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf), Budi Gunadi Sadikin as Minister of Health (Menkes), Yaqut Cholil Qoumas as Minister of Religion (Menag), Wahyu Sakti Trenggono as Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) and M. Lutfi as Minister of Commerce.
In response to these names, the president of the DPP Nasdem Party was inactive, Irma Suryani Chaniago, responded cynically to the inclusion of the name of the former vice presidential candidate (cawapres) in the cabinet.
“There is the name of Sandiaga Uno that joined, which means that yesterday it was useless for my friends from the coalition and I to have blood in the presidential election,” Irma told SINDOnews on Tuesday (12/22/2020).
The Commissioner of Pelindo I explained that he did not disagree if people from the opposition or former opponents entered the government, he even became one of Jokowi’s assistants.
However, the former member of Commission IX of the DPR regrets that there are former presidential candidates and competing cawapres who join the cabinet. This means that fighting for the 2019 presidential elections that divided the nation’s children was futile.
“It is not in disagreement, if the two opposing presidential candidates and vice presidents are included in the cabinet. So it was yesterday’s presidential elections that almost split Indonesia in two,” he explained.
“Do you think about that if Jokowi-Maruf loses? What will happen to those of us who are fighting?” Said Irma.
Therefore, Irma emphasized that the selection of people in this cabinet is not about self-interest or sincerity, but about appreciating the people who have fought for Jokowi-Maruf in the last Presidential Elections.
“This is not a question of self-interest or sincerity, but of appreciation,” he concluded.
