JAKARTA - The daily chairman of the Gerindra Party DPP, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, said that Prabowo Subianto would announce the names of his cabinets and ministers on the day of his inauguration as the 8th President of the Republic of Indonesia on Sunday, October 20.

"The cabinet name will be delivered by Pak Prabowo himself at the time of the announcement of cabinet names on the 20th," said Dasco, Tuesday, October 8.

Regarding the composition of ministers from political parties, Dasco said, the political parties that are members of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) have just discussed the Prabowo-Gibran campaign program and promise, not yet related to the cabinet. Moreover, the matter of ministerial allocation from the PDIP.

"Until now, the communication between the Gerindra Party and the PDI-P and the Gerindra Party with several coalition parties is only limited to programs or then the fulfillment of campaign promises from Pak Prabowo," said Dasco.

"Well, specifically with the PDI-P, there has been no discussion about the names that will enter or then what will be the PDI-P's attitude towards the new government officially," added the Deputy Speaker of the DPR for the two periods.

Therefore, Dasco asked all parties to wait for existing developments.

"While we focus on the inauguration," he said.

Dasco also said that there was no special event for Prabowo-Gibran supporters on the inauguration day. Because, he said, many invited guests from abroad should be greeted by Prabowo.

"Yes, until now I have not heard, because what we are concentrating on is only on official events, which of course we must focus on the 20th, how so that the inauguration of official events can run smoothly. Because there will be many state guests, heads from other countries who will attend. We focus on that. So that as much as possible the smoothness of the inauguration will not depend on the additional activities that means that," he concluded.
