Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Wiranto admitted that he sometimes wonders why some Indonesians throw shades at President Joko Widodo.
President Jokowi is praised internationally, but why is he being mockedin his own country? Some say he causes a lot of debt, he is dictator and he is not democratic, said Wiranto during the opening of Junior Chamber International (JCI) at Sahid Hotel, South Jakarta, Monday.
Wiranto stated that government does not turn a blind eye to the social gap in the state and is doing the best to manage the country.
Justice and prosperity are two things which are not easy to reach. Justice among prosperity is not easy. All presidents always want to create justice and prosperity. Government wants to build new basic economy while the worlds economy is not really good, Wiranto said.
Wiranto also statedthat the government has made programs called Nawacita (nine programs) to build the country into a better place.
For example the fuel price in Wamena now is no longer far different from the price at Java Island. Meanwhile, the government also boosted the infrastructure development at the borders, including the development of military headquarters, Wiranto said.
