Wali Kota Surakarta Gibran Rakabuming Raka / ANTARA

SOLO - Surakarta Mayor Gibran Rakabuming Raka promised to evaluate a number of shortcomings during his term of office, to be precise since February 2021.

In response, Gibran appreciated a number of notes issued by the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) regarding his leadership.

"Yes, thank you for the evaluation," he said, quoted by Antara, Friday, February 25.

Several notes related to Gibran's leadership were issued by PKS, one of which is the number of poor people in Solo City which increased from 9.03 percent in 2020 to 9.4 percent in 2021. From this increase, there was an addition of 48,790 poor people.

This achievement makes the City of Solo occupy the top position of poverty for the city level in Central Java.

Related to this, Gibran said the same thing did not only happen in the city of Solo but also in various other areas.

"If poverty increases, all experience increases, unemployment increases as well. All (all regions experience an increase)," he said.

Regarding the problem, he promised to solve it soon. One of the work programs is to solve the problem of slum areas in Mojo and Semanggi Villages, Pasar Kliwon District, Solo.

"We will finish it later, with Pak Disperkim (Head of the Housing and Land Areas Office)," he said.

Meanwhile, several other notes that have become the emphasis of PKS are Gibran's leadership style which is considered to be less nurturing to the people. The chairman of the DPD PKS Surakarta Daryono said that Gibran was also considered to have poor communication with related work partners.

"For example, in the arrangement of the Gilingan IKM center and intimidating communication styles, such as leaving the official car at school and the immediate dismissal of the Gajahan village head without a gradual mechanism," he said.

He hopes some of these notes will be noticed during Gibran's reign.

"Moreover, Mas Wali has the privilege of being the son of the President of the Republic of Indonesia. Hopefully, he can fulfill the promise of a leap that was conveyed during the campaign period," he said.
