Charta Politica Survey: Satisfaction With Jokowi-Ma'ruf Government Increases To 68.4 Percent

JAKARTA - The survey institute Chartapolitika released the results of the latest survey on the level of public satisfaction with the government of President Joko Widodo in a survey release entitled "Reading the Political Situation and the Electoral Constellation Post Projo National Work Meeting".

Executive Director Yunarto Wijaya said public satisfaction with the performance of the central government stood at 68.4 percent. Meanwhile, those who stated that they were less satisfied and dissatisfied were 30 percent.

"As long as the red report card standard is above 60 percent, it can still be said to be a pretty good number", Yunarto said in an online survey presentation, Monday, June 13.

Yunarto revealed that three regions expressed satisfaction with the performance of the Jokowi-Ma'ruf Amin government. Namely, the first is Central Java and DI Yogyakarta, the second is Bali-NTB and NTT, and the third is East Java.

"These three regions, if they are related to the traditional basis of Jokowi-Prabowo voters in the two elections, are indeed the three regions that have always been Jokowi's vote granary areas", he said.

Chartapolitika noted that the trend of public satisfaction with the government's performance increased to 68.4 percent in June 2022. Previously, the satisfaction rate was only 62.9 percent in April 2022.

"Public satisfaction from the trend of survey results has increased quite sharply from last difference in April, around 5.5 percent. Because previously it always decreased from 71.7 (January) to 62.9 percent", said Yunarto.

Yunarto explained that the public views the current economic condition as bad at 50.4 percent. While stating good only 39.9 percent.

"The results of the bad assessment actually decreased compared to last April with the figure of 56.4 percent. So there has been an increase in satisfaction in the economic field in the last two months", he said.

In the field of law, he continued, it is not much different. This is because the public's assessment of law enforcement in Indonesia has not changed significantly when viewed in the last few surveys. In this survey, the public stated that it was very good 4.4 percent, good 53.1 percent, bad 36.1 percent, and very bad at 3.2 percent.

Linear in the field of law, the tendency to rate very good is only 4.8 percent, good at 47.8 percent, bad at 38.7 percent, and very bad at 5.3 percent.

"There are interesting things when the field of law has stagnated, in the field of politics (the practice of democracy) has increased by 72.7 percent", he said.

"The lack of news for 3 periods, the lack of news regarding the extension of the president's term of office has implications for increasing public assessment of the field of democratic practice", he concluded.

The Charta Politica survey was conducted through face-to-face interviews using a multi-stage random sampling method. Involves 1200 people with a margin of 2.83 percent in the survey period May 25 - June 2, 2022.
