JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of the Golkar Party, Ace Hasan Syadzily denied the relationship between the President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo and the elected President Prabowo Subianto. According to Ace, the two always look compact. "I don't think there is a rift, they have always been compact all this time," said Ace at the Golkar DPP Office, Jakarta, Tuesday, August 27. Moreover, continued Ace, the transition and various policies of the Prabowo government in the future have been very good. Even various programs from Prabowo-Gibran have been accommodated in the 2025 State Budget. "So I don't think there will be any rifts, compact, solid, including in the Advanced Indonesia Coalition. Because we believe that among political parties also respect the various policies of each political party," said the chairman of the West Java Golkar DPD. Previously, the elected President of the Republic of Indonesia for the 2024-2029 period, Prabowo Subianto, had dismissed rumors that his relationship with the President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo (Jokowi) had broken. The Minister of Defense actually questioned where the rift was in his relationship with the head of state. According to Prabowo, the news was only rumors that certain parties had deliberately raised to pit the nation's leaders against each other.

"It turns out that Prabowo and Jokowi have cracked. Crack, where is the crack? Always want to fight each other, always fighting against each other," Prabowo said at the closing ceremony of the PAN's VI Congress at the Indonesia Kempinski Hotel, Central Jakarta, Saturday, August 24, evening.
