JAKARTA - The request from the leadership of the MPR RI to remove the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani from her position is increasingly becoming a polemic. After the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani explained the reasons for not complying with the invitation of the MPR RI. This then became the public spotlight. Public Policy Observer Trisakti Trubus Rahadiansyah, assessed that Sri Mulyani's position as Minister of Finance could be replaced by President Jokowi if her performance deteriorated.

"The MPR proposal could happen in the sense that Sri Mulyani does not show a good performance," Trubus said in Jakarta, Friday, December 3.

"But as long as performance improves further," he continued.

According to Trubus, so far Sri Mulyani's performance has improved quite a bit in terms of handling the COVID-19 pandemic and state financial stability. Moreover, during this pandemic period, the Minister of Finance did not raise much controversy.

"As long as it puts the public interest first, it can be supported and the public is satisfied with government services, finances are maintained, fuel is safe, development is progressing," said Trubus. It is the same with the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Pandjaitan who is believed to be in command of handling COVID-19 and others. In addition, he added, President Jokowi considered the policies taken by the Minister of Finance to be in line with what was expected by the government. "His name is assistant, yes, there must be compatibility and compatibility. It's the same with Pak Luhut again, Pak Luhut again, yes, because that's the prerogative of the president," he stressed. .
