Twin Sun And Battle In 2029

JAKARTA Will be chaotic in a country, in one, including in a political party if there is a lot of sun, you can imagine, it will get hotter, because one sun is already hot, then there are two, there are three, how about?

The statement of the 6th President of the Republic of Indonesia, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, which was made at the DPP of the Democratic Party in 2024, seemed to have relevance to the issue of the existence of twin suns in the Prabowo Subianto government, after several ministers of the Red and White Cabinet (KMP) visited Joko Widodo's residence along with saying that the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia was still their boss'.

When examined, it is natural for SBY to make this statement. Because, SBY once had experience with twin suns in the government. To be precise, in the first period of SBY's administration (2004-2009) when accompanied by Jusuf Kalla as vice president.

At that time, many people said that JK often acted as president. Whether it was done consciously or not, it was clear that JK was considered a twin sun when accompanying him because of his very dominant role compared to SBY.

One example is the construction of a toll road project in 2007. At that time, the Vice President's Office made a new draft regulation on toll roads. All abandoned Trans-Java Toll Road sections must be 'saved' by means of concession diversion. In fact, based on Presidential Regulation Number 67 of 2005, concession sales are not allowed if the toll road segment is not yet operational.

The draft was rejected by the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani Indrawati. However, JK continued to decide on the transfer of concessions on the basis of the Decree of the Minister of Public Works. So, one of the concession holders, PT Lintas Marga Sedaya, sold his shares to Expressway Berhad, a Malaysian company. Cross Marga is a consortium owned by PT Bukaka Teknik Utama (Group company JK).

In fact, JK admitted that he had 'threatened' to resign as vice president when SBY planned to form a state agency authorized to summon and examine ministers. I remember that incident I also did the same thing once to Mr. SBY, what body is it, forgot I was named, who can call the minister. Wow, I protested, I came to Mr. SBY to bring a folder for the appointment of the vice president. Even though the contents of the photocopy, I said sir that if the father was formed, it means that there was something strong from me, I returned this. Oh don't take this back, sir, don't take it back. So the first lesson is how to bully the boss," said JK when he was one of the speakers at the Seminar Ethos 4 Jusuf at the Hasanuddin University Ballroom Hotel, Monday (2/9/2024) ago.

Lecturer of Political Science at Al-Azhar University Indonesia, Ujang Komarudin, said that naturally with his experience, SBY warned about the existence of twin suns in the Prabowo government. He considered that the statement was a warning because SBY was trying to keep Prabowo Subianto's government in the future stable. Indeed, it must be a command, one leadership, not a lot of leaders. The world alone if the sun can be chaotic," he added, Monday, April 28, 2025.

According to him, there may be some kind of indication or movement that could bring rise to the many suns that SBY meant. Including, the previous government jokes led by Jokowi. I see it, yes, because it is in the interest of the nation, not many twin suns. Leadership must be one command, with a lot of support from the political party, not each one appears to make their respective imaging, "said Ujang.

Fighting In 2029 As The Settlement Of The Twin Sun

Political ethics expert from the Indonesian Academy of Sciences, Haryatmoko, revealed that the emergence of the twin solar issues was related to the unclear and firm transition of power from Jokowi to Prabowo. Because in a democratic country, the transition to power must be clear so as not to cause a dilemma of bureaucratic loyalty that can lead to political polarase.

"Because the problem is said by Pak Prabowo, he will continue Pak Jokowi's politics. But to what extent the peculiarities of Pak Prabowo are also displayed. I see that the time of visits to Pak Jokowi is not on time and context. I mean, so that this transition is clear and people see that there is one loyalty and also so that the bureaucracy is directed one and so that the one policy, in fact, the community also wants to get a clearness or so that this transition there is also transparency that currently in power is Pak Prabowo," he explained.

He said, during the visits of the KMP ministers to Jokowi that were not appropriate, in the end, there was an assumption of political polarization in the community. Because, there are still those who feel that Jokowi is still the role of former ministers in his government cabinet. "There could be elements to be able to save themselves because Pak Jokowi's influence is still there. So the important thing is that this transition is clear and Pak Prabowo's public profit does not reveal his offense," added Haryatmoko.

He explained that although Jokowi had emphasized that there was no twin sun and only one sun, namely President Prabowo Subianto, that statement could still cause a debate between language or language aspect. In language science, there are three aspects, namely an official, per location, ilo-locationary. From the ilo-locationary aspect, continued Haryatmoko, a statement is said to be true and there is a connection with the extent to which the statement has implications for those who say, or in other words, there is one word and action.

"People are still suspicious, isn't it time (Jokowi) said that the President is Prabowo. But whether the policies are secretly still greatly influenced by Pak Jokowi or the term is fake. Maybe people still get an impression like that," he said.

Executive Director of the Indonesian Data Scale, Arif Nurul Imam, believes that the visit of the KMP minister shows the difficulty of releasing Jokowi's shadow in the Prabowo Subianto government. This can be a danger alarm that must be addressed immediately. Because if not, the Prabowo government will continue to be haunted forever and cannot be independent in running all work programs that have been made.

"I think when the twin leadership will certainly attract interests. Where in Jokowi's jokes, it is alleged that the public is still quite strong in the Prabowo-Gibran government. We know the political factor is of course because Jokowi is considered to have an investment in Prabowo-Gibran's victory," he said.

"Second, we also know that Gibran is the son of Jokowi. Therefore, Jokowi is often included in the realms of public policy that are considered important, even though it is backstage," Arif added.

Historical observer Reza Anshori has an intriguing opinion about solving the twin solar issue in the Prabowo Subianto era. The general chairman of the Gerindra Party can reflect on the story of Sultan Agung (Mataram) who wants to extinguish another sun in Java, namely Giri Kedaton. Especially in the modern era, SBY has also done the same thing by extinguishing another sun, namely JK.

SBY-JK is the twin sun of Indonesia in the modern era. Like the Sultan Agung, SBY wants the same sun to be extinguished. If the Sultan of Agung uses the Pangeran Pekik and Laskar Surabaya to defeat the Giri Kedaton, then SBY uses the elections and stupidness of the Indonesian people to defeat JK. It's just a matter of whether Prabowo dares to 'divide' so that Gibran will run in the 2029 presidential election and extinguish Jokowi, represented by Gibran in the current government," he said.
