JAKARTA - The issue of a cabinet reshuffle or reshuffle has strengthened again. It is said that the reshuffle will be held tomorrow because it coincides with Pon Wednesday.

Regarding the news circulating, the Minister of Communication and Information (Menkominfo) Johnny G Plate admitted that he has a limited meeting schedule at the Merdeka Palace tomorrow, Wednesday, March 23.

According to Johnny, the meeting which will be held tomorrow afternoon will be chaired directly by President Jokowi. One of the Ratas discussions was related to the evaluation of the implementation of the Mandalika MotoGP.

"Tomorrow afternoon I have an invitation to the meeting. If it's a meeting, the president will lead the cabinet meeting unless the president is outside the region," Johnny told reporters at the DPR building, Senayan, Jakarta, Tuesday, March 21.

"The average invitation must be a related problem. One of them is regarding the implementation of the Mandalika MotoGP, the other has not yet been discussed," he continued.

However, Johnny admitted that he was not aware of the reshuffle agenda. According to him, that is the authority of President Jokowi

"If there are evaluation results that need to be repaired or completed or even replaced, it is the president's authority," he said.

It is known that the news of the cabinet reshuffle, which will be held on Wednesday Pon, March 23, was mentioned by the chairman of the PPP DPP, Achmad Baidowi. Even so, he said it was the prerogative of the president.

Jokowi, said the man who is familiarly called Awiek, has his own benchmark for when to reshuffle.

"I've only heard about it, but I certainly don't know because it is President Jokowi's prerogative," Awiek told reporters, Tuesday, March 8.
