Bahlil Hands Over Ministerial Regulation Affairs To Prabowo

JAKARTA - General Chairperson of the Golkar Party DPP Bahlil Lahadalia said his party had fully handed over to Elected President Prabowo Subianto regarding ministerial rations in the upcoming government cabinet.

"We all leave it to Pak Prabowo," said Bahlil as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, October 14.

Bahlil did not mention the ministerial quota obtained by the Golkar Party in the Prabowo-Gibran government cabinet.

He emphasized that determining the ministerial seat is the prerogative of the president so that his party does not want to interfere and submit everything to the Elected President Prabowo Subianto.

"We leave everything up because it is the prerogative of the elected president," he said.

Previously, Deputy Chairperson of the Golkar Party, Adies Kadir, expressed his gratitude when responding to the news that his party was said to have received seven ministerial seats in the Prabowo-Gibran government cabinet.

However, Adies handed over the decision regarding the preparation of the cabinet to Elected President Prabowo Subianto as the holder of prerogative.

"I can only say thank God," said Adies.

Adies admitted that he did not know for sure the allocation of ministerial seats obtained by the Golkar Party in the upcoming government cabinet because the parties who knew best about it were God, Prabowo Subianto, and General Chairperson of Golkar Bahlil Lahadalia.

"The elected president will certainly coordinate with our general chairman, Pak Bahlil, only the two of them and Allah knows, right. We don't know yet," he said.

Adies also asked the public to wait for this confirmation from Prabowo Subianto who will directly announce the composition of his cabinet after the inauguration on October 20, 2024.
