Jakarta –
Minister Cabinet Secretary (Menseskab) Pramono Anung openly about the cabinet of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). He revealed a number of cabinet secrets during the 7 years accompanying Jokowi.
Initially, Pramono talked about working conditions in Jokowi’s cabinet. He said all ministers in Jokowi’s cabinet always worked in unison without any friction.
“I, Mas Pratik, are practically two people who never take a break, but we enjoy it, and as a work team, I think this is a very compact work team, because there is practically no friction. Everything can be resolved well,” said Pramono in the Podkabs event hosted by Putri Tanjung, as broadcast on the Setkab YouTube, Saturday (5/2/2022).
Pramono then revealed Jokowi’s wishes that he had conveyed to his aides. He said Jokowi was always determined to leave as much legacy as possible for Indonesia.
“I see that the President really wants to leave a legacy of many things for this nation. For that, we really support the President. If we are not healthy, we are not strong, we are not prepared, we will be oversized, and he is very energetic, right,” said Pramono.
Furthermore, Pramono also revealed the conditions of the limited meeting or cabinet meeting that Jokowi and his ministers had so far conducted. According to him, it was through this meeting that a decision was made for a country that always adhered to the law.
“So that’s where the President will decide, for example related matters like yesterday, the President decides the price of cooking oil and bulk oil to Rp. it becomes a binding matter, in terms of legislation there is an umbrella, because the cabinet meeting has its minutes,” he explained.
“So that one day if there is a lawsuit, the PTUN is filed and so on, then we have a basis for it. So all decisions at the cabinet meeting, starting with vaccines, evaluating PPKM, all of that is decided by the president in a cabinet meeting,” he continued.
