Survey Of Indicators On Governors In Java: The Satisfaction Of The Highest Citizens Won By Dedi Mulyadi, Pramono Anung Fifth

JAKARTA - The Indonesian Political Indicators survey institute released a poll on public perceptions of the performance of 100 days of governors in Java, namely Banten, Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, East Java, and DI Yogyakarta.

Executive Director of Indonesian Political Indicators Burhanuddin Muhtadi mapped the assessment of residents in each province of the performance of their respective governors.

The number of respondents taken in Jakarta was 500 respondents. Then, West Java, Central Java and East Java each had 600 respondents. Then, Yogyakarta and Banten each had 400 respondents.

As a result, West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi (KDM) achieved the highest performance satisfaction from its citizens, which was 94.7 percent.

"Overall, Dedi Mulyadi is indeed very high, and that explains why media often cover KDM because the rating is high, that's what distinguishes it from the governor elsewhere," Burhanuddin said in a press conference broadcast online, Wednesday, May 28.

Second place is the Governor of DI Yogyakarta Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono X with performance satisfaction by its citizens of 83.8 percent. Then, East Java Governor Khofifah Indar Parawansa was in third place with 75.3 percent satisfaction.

"In East Java, this is competitive, as we all know, Khofifah is the only female governor in Java. She has twice been a governor in East Java, a fighter, because she has lost several times against Pakde Karwo, getting 75 percent, I think it can be even higher if you take advantage of social media," said Burhanuddin.

After that, performance satisfaction with the Governor of Central Java Ahmad Luthfi with 62.5 percent, followed by the Governor of DKI Jakarta Pramono Anung with 60 percent performance satisfaction. Finally, Banten Governor Andra Soni with a satisfaction level of 50.8 percent.

Burhanuddin then explained why the level of satisfaction with Dedi Mulyadi's performance in West Java was higher than other governors, including Pramono Anung in Jakarta, who in fact is the capital city.

"In West Java, the level of satisfaction with the Governor is very prominent compared to other regions. Most likely because after his inauguration as Governor, Dedi Mulyadi was very active in going to the community to see firsthand and immediately take action on various problems encountered," explained Burhanuddin.

"This does not happen to other governors, at least in Java Island, so the response of residents is also not very prominent. In Jakarta, there is a job fair program, it is quite widely known to residents, but among those who know it seems less optimistic about the program," he added.

For information, the survey was conducted on May 12-19 2025. The population of this survey includes all Indonesian citizens on the island of Java who have the right to vote in general elections, namely those who are 17 years old or older, or are already married when the survey is conducted.
