Bima Arya Gets Tasks From Prabowo About Politics And Government, Asked To Study The Election System

JAKARTA - Former Bogor Mayor Bima Arya Sugiarto admitted that he received directions and duties to focus on political and government issues when meeting the elected President Prabowo Subianto.

"Pak Prabowo specifically expressed his gratitude for being willing to join his new government cabinet in the future. And specifically, I received directions and tasks that essentially focus on political and government issues," said Bima Arya as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, October 15.

Although he has not mentioned in detail what position will be held, according to Bima Arya, this task is in accordance with his capacity and experience. Not only as mayor for 10 years, but also as an academic and political observer.

Bima Arya said Prabowo specifically asked him to conduct a study of the electoral system, which Prabowo considered inefficient, was a lot of waste.

"So I think this is a very important thing. Because so far we have heard a lot of complaints in the field," he said.

In addition, Bima Arya admitted that he was ready to carry out the mandate of the elected president. He also asked for prayers from all residents of Bogor City for his new mandate.

"And God willing, I will definitely not leave Bogor City. With my new position, I will continue to love and do my best. Contribute to the beloved city of Bogor," he said.
