In his view, the intensity is like blusukan, just like Jokowi, one side will expand the spectrum of the public that can be captured by the government. On the other hand, implement a control mechanism on the agenda or implementation of the government's Astacita vision.

"What is interesting about Mas Gibran is his initiative, as is the case with the 'Lapor Mas Vice President' program.' Then the background, which is considered to represent young people, energetics, is the capital to continue the blusukan agenda, to see closely how the social conditions of grassroots communities are. This is strategic as well as important, namely in order to absorb public aspirations, on the other hand, to carry out a control function which of course everything will be reported to Mr. President Prabowo which leads to the government's policy agenda," he explained.
