JAKARTA - The idea of extending the presidential term to 3 terms seems unstoppable. Later, the COVID-19 pandemic situation became the reason for the addition of the presidential term.

According to him, President Joko Widodo has often refused to extend his term of office. So, there is no need for a constitutional change.
"We'll just follow what Mr. Jokowi says, be perpendicular to the institution and perpendicular to the existing regulations. So we no longer need to revise, especially taking the advantage of the pandemic to extend the presidential term, I don't think it's necessary", said Hendri.
Besides that, according to Hendri, the 3-term position for the President of the Republic of Indonesia is a setback for democracy in the country.

"In fact, those who have the idea are not saving the country, they are pushing this country into a democratic decline and the abyss of a life that is not better than it is today", he said.
Hensat, as he is familiarly called, hopes that no one will oppose Jokowi's wishes regarding the presidential term. Both political parties and volunteers.
There are two reasons, he said. First, Indonesia has never had a shortage of leaders. Second, Jokowi has built Indonesia very well.
"We must give Mr. Jokowi the opportunity to complete the development that he leads well and can be recorded in history well", he explained.
