"This is a spirit in the reconciliation of the nation and we want to present a strong team and contain or what is manned by the nation's best sons and daughters from various professional and trans-generational sectors," said AHY.

Previously, AHY said Prabowo encouraged himself to be able to play a role in the future government.

AHY said that when answering reporters' questions about whether or not there was a discussion on the allocation of ministerial seats in his meeting with Prabowo Subianto, Tuesday night (20/2).

Despite being encouraged to play a role in the government in the next five years, AHY admitted that he had not specifically discussed what tasks would be carried out in the next five years, if Prabowo won the 2024 presidential election.

"Not specifically or yet to discuss specifically what will be done in the next five years in a certain arrangement or formation. Later, maybe at the next opportunity we will talk like that," he explained.
