JAKARTA - Admiral Yudo Margono, who is officially the TNI Commander today, responded casually about his position in less than a year. Yudo will serve for 11 months because he retired in November 2023.

Yudo admitted that he had never thought about how long he would carry out his duties as TNI Commander. Most importantly, he can carry out his duties optimally. "From the beginning, I never thought how long the term of office was, how long we will carry out the tasks assigned to us. We carry out as optimally as possible for the country and the nation, said the President. If the term of office is, it's up to each other," said Yudo at the State Palace, Jakarta, Monday, December 19.

Yudo emphasized that he had no problem if he only had the opportunity to serve as commander in chief for less than a year. According to him, this does not reduce his work as TNI commander.

"I'm only a year old, we haven't optimally served a year. We are carrying out our duties optimally," he said. It is known that Admiral Yudo Margono had just been officially inaugurated by President Joko Widodo as TNI Commander replacing General Andika Perkasa. Yudo was sworn in at the State Palace in Jakarta today, Monday, December 19.

Yudo is the only candidate who took the fit and proper test as a candidate for TNI commander in the DPR on December 2.
