JAKARTA - President Prabowo Subianto gave a stern message to the apparatus that was included in the Forest Area Enforcement Task Force. He said that the enforcement of state assets and wealth would certainly face resistance from parties who had enjoyed the results.
"Bandits and robbers don't like you," said Prabowo when giving a speech at the Attorney General's Office, Wednesday, May 13, 2026.
Prabowo asked the police not to be afraid of facing parties who have enjoyed the results of crimes against state wealth. According to him, the police must continue to carry out their duties and side with the people.
Prabowo assessed that the people had seen the wealth of the country stolen for too long without any real action. Therefore, he asked the authorities not to be afraid of threats, insults, or slander.
"Don't be afraid of being threatened, don't be afraid of being insulted, don't be afraid of being slandered," he said.
According to Prabowo, the handover of Rp10.27 trillion and 2.37 million hectares of forest areas is not just a ceremony. He called it proof that the state is beginning to take back the rights of the people who have been deprived.
Prabowo also reminded that the public is now increasingly critical and able to assess who is really working for the country.
"The people of Indonesia see every day that Indonesia's wealth is stolen. This must stop," he said.
He ensured that the government would continue to take firm steps to secure state wealth, despite facing political risks and pressure from disadvantaged groups.
