“I praise Pak Prabowo for presenting the situation of the Indonesian people as it is,” said Prof. Henri in his statement on the application X @henrysubiakto (20/11/2024).
Prof. said. Henri, President Prabowo, admitted that although Indonesia was the country with the fourth largest population in the world. There is a lot of homework behind it.
“He admitted that he was elected president of a country with the 4th largest population in the world,” he said.
The problems of hunger and poverty are still being faced every day.
“But hunger and poverty are still serious problems every day,” said Prof. Henry.
He said, reflecting on the problem of hunger and poverty, that data was obtained that 25 percent of children in Indonesia experience hunger every day.
“In fact, it is said that 25 percent of children in Indonesia are hungry every day,” he explained.
According to Prof. Henri, Prabowo’s courage to publish this condition shows the transparency and honesty of a leader.
However, he questioned the intention behind presenting these facts at a prestigious international forum such as the G20.

He suspected that the statement could be a call for international cooperation or a form of diplomacy to encourage global attention to pressing problems in Indonesia.
