JAKARTA - Minister of Finance Purbaya Yudhi Sadivewa predicts that the number of demonstrations or demonstrations will decline in the future, because people are now starting to feel satisfied with the performance of President Prabowo Subianto's government.
According to Purbaya, the increasing public satisfaction was reflected in the consumer confidence index in government performance which continued to rise since October 2025 to 113.3, then touched the highest point in November 2025 at 118. The survey was conducted by the Deposit Insurance Corporation (LPS).
"When the public is satisfied with the current government, the demonstration should be less in the future," he said in a working meeting with Commission XI of the DPR RI, Thursday, November 27.
He explained that this condition was different from the situation from June to August 2025, when the index had fallen sharply, triggering massive demonstrations.
According to him, the demonstration was influenced by public dissatisfaction with the government's system and policies.
"So at yesterday the economy slowed down in June, July, August, September, this fell to a very low level. It illustrates people's dissatisfaction with all of us, not to me, not just to us, but to all of them, so it's easy for them to take to the streets," he said.
Purbaya said that he had made a breakthrough after being inaugurated as the State Treasurer by placing government funds into national banking and successfully encouraging economic movement again.

"If we don't return the economy, we are in danger! Not only the DPR, the government is also the main thing. So our steps to reverse it with Rp200 trillion plus Rp76 trillion, this has succeeded in triggering optimism and triggering our economy a little," he added.
He added that the support from Commission XI and the President's approval to place government funds played a major role in reversing the economic direction and building new growth momentum, so that the level of community satisfaction increased again.
Purbaya emphasized that this recovery momentum must be maintained so that the government can focus on encouraging higher economic growth.
He is optimistic that the 6 percent growth target in 2026 can be achieved if the current condition is maintained.
