Vice Presidential Candidate (cawapres) number 1, Muhaimin Iskandar admitted that he was surprised by the vice presidential candidate number 2, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, who seemed to be backed up after the fourth debate in the 2024 presidential election. After arguing with Gibran in the debate, Cak Imin received a reply from the government camp, one of which was the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan who denied Cak Imin about the bad effects of downstreaming. "Never admit that you are a young man if you are hiding behind the armpits of other opa-opa," said Cak Imin at the declaration of the Young Archipelago Volunteers in South Jakarta, Sunday, January 28. According to Cak Imin, if the debate that was revealed in the debate continued afterwards, Gibran should have spoken out to argue with him again. "Who is arguing about who, who argues about other people. Yes, if you are the one debating with me, then you have to be the one who gets stuck. Don't ask other people for help to refute my opinion," he said. For information, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan opened his voice about Cak Imin's accusation that the reckless downstream program carried out by the government did not bring prosperity to the community. Cak Imin made the accusation in the fourth debate of the Vice Presidential Candidate which took place on Sunday, January 21. Through a post on his Instagram page, Luhut said he wanted to invite Cak Imin to visit Indonesia Weda Bay Industrial Park (IWIP), which is an integrated industrial area for heavy metal processing and is located in Lelilef Village, Weda District, Central Halmahera Regency, North Maluku Province. Apart from Weda Bay, Luhut also invited Muhaimin to visit the nickel processing-based industrial area in Morowali. "I actually want to invite Muhaimin to visit Weda Bay and Morowali to see for myself. Looking is believing, rather than lying to the public. What I think is a character that is not good at achieving something in your position to deceive the public with this information," said Luhut from his Instagram page, Wednesday, January 24.
Luhut claimed, based on his data, the poverty rate in Central Sulawesi in 2015 was 14.7 percent and in the 2023 ton it fell to 12.4 percent. "What's that? Yes, because of economic growth there. So there was quite an improvement there," he said.
