JAKARTA - PKB Chairman Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin) explained the reason his party still brought the idea of change even though he has now supported the Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka government for the next 5 years.

The idea for the change is a narrative echoed by Cak Imin and Anies Baswedan during his time as presidential and vice-presidential candidates for the 2024 General Election.

Cak Imin emphasized that the change he meant was not about replacing or continuing the leadership of the country, but how the government in the future was able to face various challenges.

"This change is the ability of government resilience in responding to economic, social and cultural challenges. If nothing changes, I think there will be collaps," said Cak Imin in Jakarta, Wednesday, May 1 evening.

The government, according to him, must also be able to change development strategies in the midst of global developments, and answer the demands of the community.

"The community is getting more critical. The demands are big, if there is no change in the scenario, the way it works is hard to anticipate. Rice, for example. If there is no change in strategy, well, our collaps. Continue to imports," explained Cak Imin.

Moreover, Cak Imin claims that Prabowo has the same view about the idea. That's why Prabowo received 8 agenda changes submitted by PKB when expressing support.

"I also read Pak Prabowo's statement a few days ago. Yes, there is no choice indeed. There is something that must be changed. If not, it will be difficult. Economic access for the lower middle class, if there is no change, it will be heavy," he concluded.
