Indicator Survey: Almost All Minang People Are Not Satisfied With Jokowi's Performance

JAKARTA - The Indicators survey institute presented the results of a survey regarding the level of public satisfaction with the performance of President Joko Widodo, along with its demographic basis.

As a result, around 59.2 percent of respondents said they were satisfied with Jokowi's performance. Meanwhile, there were 38.5 respondents who said they were not satisfied and 2.1 said they did not know or did not answer.

If you look at the level of satisfaction according to socio-demographic, based on ethnicity, the lowest satisfaction with Jokowi's performance comes from the Minang ethnic. Minang people who are satisfied with Jokowi's performance are only 2.8 percent. While those who are not fasting are 97.2 percent.

"In Minang, only 2.8 percent are satisfied, brothers and sisters. Almost 100 percent of Minang people are dissatisfied with Pak Jokowi's performance", said Executive Director of Indicators Burhanuddin Muhtadi in a virtual survey presentation, Wednesday, August 23.

The low level of satisfaction is also in the Sundanese ethnic community, which is only 45.9 percent. Meanwhile, 50.9 percent were dissatisfied and 3.2 percent did not answer.

"The level of satisfaction in several pockets that are not the traditional base of Jokowi's supporters is much lower. Support for satisfaction with President Jokowi still comes from Javanese, Batak, and Madurese ethnic groups, which are also not bad", he said.
