JAKARTA - The DPP Democrat Party does not care about the number of ministerial seats in the Prabowo-Gibran government cabinet. Democrats emphasized that this should be a secret between the elected President, Prabowo Subianto and General Chair Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY). "For the number, let it be a secret between Mas AHY and Pak Prabowo," Herzaky told reporters, Friday, April 19. Herzaky also did not want to divulge the names of ministerial candidates from his party. Although Prabowo has directly asked the best democratic cadres to be involved in the government. "From the Democrats, as previously stated, Pak Prabowo has asked Mas AHY. The best cadres are of course," he said. "What is certain is loyal to this party. Second, how hard it is for this party. The three of them have the competence of credibility in carrying out this mandate. Because this is a very difficult task, however, we have the promise to make it happen to the community to realize Pak Prabowo's program and vision and mission," he continued. Herzaky is also not worried that there will be parties outside the coalition that want to join the Prabowo-Gibran government. According to him, there are many ministerial seats so there is no need to be afraid that the Democratic allocation will be divided into other political parties. "No (worry, red). There are a lot of proportions (ministers, ed). We're not talking about how much or what we get, but how we're both fighting. We're already committed, Mr. Prabowo, what steps do we believe," said Herzaky. Even so, Herzaky said, the Democrats gave it entirely to Prabowo as the owner of the prerogative.

"It depends on Pak Prabowo because he is the president-elect, it is his prerogative to choose whoever is his assistant in the Democrats," he concluded.
