JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of the PKB DPP Najmi Mumtaza Rabbany said his party played an important role in the government of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) for the last 10 years.

This is because PKB is a political motorbike that brings people hope.

"At that time, PKB was part of the one carrying Pak Jokowi," said Najmi at the Talks PKB Insight Hub, Indonesia's 2024 Government Transition in Kemang, South Jakarta, Saturday, October 19.

PKB together with three other parties namely Nasdem, Hanura, and PDIP, supported Jokowi in the 2014 Presidential Election (Pilpres) contection.

At that time, the public had high hopes for Jokowi to bring Indonesia better.

However, it is stated that the journey of the Jokowi government is not smooth. Rintangan and challenges come and go.

PKB, continued Najmi, not only supports the government, but is also a party that carries out the function of check and balance.

One of the issues highlighted by PKB is related to the protection of privacy and digitization data, considering that the majority of young people today are digital natives.

Towards the end of Jokowi's administration, Gus Najmi hopes that in the future the government can defend what is already good and take lessons from what is lacking.

"Hopefully what is good will survive and we will continue to take the new values," said Najmi.
