Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Abdul Muhaimin Iskandar alias Cak Imin assessed President Joko Widodo's apology at the MPR Annual Session and the Joint Session of the DPR and DPD in 2024 to release his leadership for two terms with husnul khatimah.

"It's part of the obligation to forgive each other, let go with husnul khatimah," said Cak Imin as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, August 16.

He also considered the apology as something a leader would normally do at the end of his term of office.

"Something natural as a leader that ends his period," he said.

Previously, President Joko Widodo together with the Vice President of the Republic of Indonesia Ma'ruf Amin apologized to all Indonesian people at the end of his term of office, which left about two months for hope that could not be realized.

"I and Prof. Dr. (HC) KH Ma'ruf Amin apologize. Sorry for any heart that may be disappointed for any hope that may not be realized, for any ideals that may not yet be able to be reached," said President Jokowi.
