JAKARTA - Minister of Agriculture (Mentan) Syahrul Yasin Limpo is said to be a minister of the Advanced Indonesia Cabinet who was hit by a reshuffle. So, what did the Minister of Agriculture say?
"I don't know. I just work. I started from the bottom of the job, just working, as much as I can and as hard as I can," Syahrul told reporters at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, Tuesday, June 14.
The NasDem politician's name is often mentioned when rumors of a cabinet reshuffle strengthen as one of the ministers who deserves to be removed.
A number of political observers and even volunteer groups supporting President Jokowi frequently mention Syahrul's name in the ranks of ministers who deserve to be replaced.

Syahrul also admitted that he had never received a special call from President Jokowi to discuss the cabinet reshuffle.
