JAKARTA - Presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto through a voice call at the DPR hearing with the Solidarity of Indonesian Judges (SHI) promised to prosper judges in Indonesia.

The promise was made by Prabowo when he called the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, who was leading the audience.

"I think that the judges must improve the quality of their lives, and it must be guaranteed so that the judges are very independent, and can carry out their duties as judges as well as possible," Prabowo said as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, October 8.

However, the Defense Minister said his statement was not just a promise.

"That's my view from the start, and this is not a promise because the campaign has been completed. So, I don't need promises, but this is my belief," he said.

Therefore, Prabowo asked the judges to be patient until he officially served as president.

"Once I receive the relay, mandate, and I carry out, I will really pay attention to the judges so that our country can eliminate corruption," he said.

Meanwhile, some of the judges' demands in the hearing were to ask for the acceleration of the revision of Government Regulation Number 94 of 2012 concerning Financial Rights and Facilities of Judges under the Supreme Court to an increase in basic salary and office allowances of up to 142 percent.
