JAKARTA - PDI-P Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto said his party's ministers continued to show solidity. In addition, PDIP will continue to encourage ministers from their party to become effective ministers in government.
"So they showed their best performance for Pak Jokowi and everything for the nation and state of Indonesia," said Hasto in a written statement quoted on Sunday, July 12.
Meanwhile, related to the widespread reshuffle issue, Hasto said that reshuffle or cabinet reshuffling is the prerogative of the president. He is sure that Jokowi will make decisions regarding the reshuffle in accordance with the results of the evaluation and study and listen to the aspirations of the community.
If the reshuffle is carried out, Hasto then mentions a number of criteria for ministers who are deemed suitable to serve in the midst of a crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as leadership skills, managerial abilities, fast action, and courage to take risks.
"So that without being ordered by the president, (the minister, red) immediately moves to make the ministry he leads at the forefront of both the political and economic aspects as well as in moving with the people to face these difficult problems," he said.
Previously, Chairman of the PDI-P Election Development Planning Board Bambang Wuryanto predicted that President Jokowi would carry out a reshuffle after the 2020 Pilkada which was held on 9 December. "This analysis, this is an analysis. The reshuffle analysis was carried out after the simultaneous regional elections," he said.
He said that the analysis was because President Jokowi was not happy to make decisions that made noise and created chaotic situations in Indonesian politics. This is because the chaotic political situation will make his job difficult.
"Pak Jokowi does not like to make decisions that make him uncomfortable (noisy or chaotic, red). Because people work when they are horrified, it is difficult to work," he said, adding that it was only natural that Jokowi flicked his minister.
"So if Pak Jokowi then deals with the performance of the ministers, it is natural. He is the one who made it. Not according to my expectations, for example, that's natural," he said.
It is known, some time ago President Jokowi opened a signal of a cabinet reshuffle after being disappointed with his minister's mediocre performance in the midst of a crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"It is possible to dissolve the institution. It could be a reshuffle. Already thinking about where I am. I don't know for a more important perppu. If it is necessary, "said Jokowi.
Furthermore, in a limited meeting which was broadcast on Wednesday, July 8 on the YouTube account of the Presidential Secretariat, Jokowi again showed signs of dissatisfaction with the performance of his ministers. At that time he insinuated his ministers not to work normally in the midst of a pandemic.
"Don't let us say that three months ago we work from home, work from home that I see is like taking leave," he said.
"Don't work just as normal. Work harder is what I want in conditions like this," he concluded.
