JAKARTA - The United Development Party (PPP) highlighted the declining level of public satisfaction with the performance of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and Vice President (Wapres) Ma'ruf Amin based on a Kompas Research and Development survey.
According to PPP DPP chairman Achmad Baidowi or Awiek, the economic sector is the sector that has the most impact on the assessment of people's satisfaction with the Jokowi government.
"If we look at the latest situation in the last few months, it is indeed difficult for the economic sector to recover, experiencing obstacles," said Awiek, Tuesday, June 21.
The member of Commission VI of the House of Representatives said that apart from being hit by COVID-19, the national economy was also in trouble due to the long-standing increase and scarcity of staple food prices. In particular, the problem of cooking oil.
"Apart from the COVID-19 pandemic, the prices of basic necessities have crept up, special oil wabils, apart from being expensive, are also becoming scarce, and until now there have been no concrete steps to stabilize prices," said Awiek.
Until in the end, Jokowi made a reshuffle in the cabinet. Awiek hopes that the change of ministers in the mid-June reshuffle can have a good impact on the performance of the Jokowi government. Although, he said, the change was not instant.
"It can't be seen today. However, how about in the last few months. The hope is that (the reshuffle) can boost performance, cabinet performance, that's it," said Awiek.
"But, we'll see in the next month or two, whether yesterday's reshuffle is effective enough to solve the problems that exist in the field," he added.
It is known that the Kompas R&D survey for the period of June 2022 found a decrease in the number of public satisfaction with the performance of the government of Joko Widodo and Ma'ruf Amin.
The satisfaction rate figure dropped to 67.1 percent in June 2022 after previously being at 73.9 percent in January. The drastic decline in overall satisfaction levels was influenced by the lack of satisfaction in the economic sector. The economic sector here includes performance in maintaining the prices of goods and services "Public satisfaction with the government's performance in the economy has been observed to decline. The decline in satisfaction with economic performance with the Jokowi-Ma'ruf government in the Compass Research and Development survey for the June period occurred before January 2022," said Kompas Research and Development researcher Andreas Yoga Prasetyo.
