JAKARTA - The Indonesian Police Strategic Studies Institute (Lemkapi) assessed that the meeting between Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto and the National Police Chief Gen. Pol Listyo Sigit Prabowo had the meaning of building synergies between the TNI and the National Police.
"We see that gatherings accompanied by the provision of G2 Elite gun souvenirs have an important meaning in building a stronger synergy between the Police and the TNI," said Lemkapi Executive Director Edi Hasibuan in a written statement, quoted from Antara, Friday, September 30.
According to the police observer, currently the Police and the TNI continue to increase cooperation, coordination, and mutual support in facing the 2024 General Election.
"We have seen that the synergy between the Police and the TNI has been good. This collaboration certainly makes people comfortable," said the teacher at Bhayangkara University, Jakarta.
According to him, the synergy between the National Police and the TNI will have an impact on public trust in the government that President Joko Widodo's security policy in managing security in this country is very good.
"The National Police and the TNI must be strong to protect the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia," he added.
Previously, Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto said Indonesia needed a strong TNI and Polri in maintaining the integrity of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI).
"We need strong and strong police. We need a strong TNI, a strong Polri. I will also support strong police development," Prabowo said while visiting the National Police Headquarters in Jakarta, Wednesday, as quoted in his press release.
On the sidelines of the meeting, Prabowo gave a souvenir to the National Police Chief in the form of a silver and black G2 Elite gun made by the domestic defense industry, PT Pindad.
