JAKARTA - Minister of State Secretary (Mensesneg) Prasetyo Hadi denied that the issue of the budget that had not been disbursed was one of the reasons Hasan Nasbi had resigned from his position as Head of the Presidential Communication Office (PCO).
As is known, the Head of the Presidential Communication Office (PCO) Hasan Nasbi returned to work at the PCO office, the 14th Floor National Kwartir building, Jakarta, on Tuesday (6/5) after announcing his resignation on April 29, 2025.
"Nothing at all. Nothing at all. What was conveyed earlier, thank God everything was finished. Even before the resignation letter was completed. So it's not, it has nothing to do with this problem," Prasetyo said as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, May 9.
Prasetyo explained procedurally, Hasan Nasbi did send his resignation letter addressed to President Prabowo Subianto, through the Minister of State Secretary and Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya.
However, the President then studied and considered Hasan's decision to resign.
"Then the President gave a decision and considered then asking him to continue to carry out his duties as Head of the Presidential Communication Office," said Prasetyo.
When asked further about the reason why the President asked Hasan to return to lead the institution, Prasetyo only answered that the reason was confidential.
According to Prasetyo, President Prabowo certainly has his own assessment of Hasan Nasbi, who has held the position since August 2024.
"When he felt that he decided, ordered (Hasan Nasbi) to continue to lead the Head of the Presidential Communication Office, I think it's legal, it's normal. His rights are prerogative," said Prasetyo.
