00:00The President's decision to elect Prabowo Subianto to form a large cabinet is getting more and more intense.
00:08Documents circulating in Terima Tempo show that the DPR will increase the number of commissions from 11 to 13.
00:14The document entitled Nomenklatura Mitra AKD, or Dewan Completion Tools, shows that there are 46 ministries that will partner with the DPR.
00:25Deputy Chairperson of the DPR, Soefie Dasko Ahmad, responded to the ministerial news in the government cabinet of Prabowo,
00:30there will be a total of 46, as included in the Mitra AKD document.
00:34Dasko did not deny or falsely claim the number of 46 ministries.
00:39The Chairperson of the Green Rail Party said that the number of ministries is still unknown.
00:45He announced that the arrangement of the ministerial name in the Prabowo cabinet will be established on May 5,
00:51before the appointment according to the scheduled time target.
00:54The appointment of the President and the elected representative will be held on October 20, 2024.
01:00This means that the cabinet will be established on October 15, 2024.
01:06State Law expert from the University of Andalas, Charles Simabura, said,
01:10many ministers in the cabinet will make it difficult for the President to communicate and coordinate their programs.
01:17Charles also said that another consequence of more ministries is the emergence of regulatory issues.
01:23The more ministries there are, there is a potential for overregulation because each minister will enforce their own rules.
01:30The establishment of a cabinet based on political parties will also not be a problem for Prabowo in the future.
01:36Charles stated that Prabowo will find it difficult to control its cabinet because each political party will claim that its ministries are their responsibility.
01:44Ideally, according to Charles, the less ministries there are, the more effective their work will be.
01:49Ministers are political offices that work at the level of policy,
01:53so it really doesn't need a lot of ministers to make it easier to coordinate.
01:59The Directorate Executive of the Center for Law and Policy Studies of Indonesia, or PSAK, Rizki Argama,
02:04estimates that the number of ministers in the Prabowo cabinet is purely a commodity for political parties.
02:09As a result, he directs ministers who will later be in office to work for political interests, not public interests.
02:18Another thing that needs to be noted is the budget with the increasing number of ministries.
02:21According to Rizki, the establishment of APBN is not an easy task.
02:25Moreover, there are 10 to 15 new ministries that have been formed, so it will be a significant burden for APBN.
02:31The issue of governance, he said, is just on the APBN side.
02:35Not to mention the bureaucratic technical issues with the separation of offices and human resources.
02:41Even though the elected president, Prabowo Subianto, said that the cabinet composition would be large.
02:46When attending a business forum last week, Prabowo said that a large cabinet is needed to build a strong government.
02:53Prabowo's plan is to increase the number of ministries running smoothly after the DPR revised Law No. 39 in 2008
03:00on state ministries on September 19, 2024.
03:03The revision of this regulation eliminates the limitation of ministries from the previous 34 ministries
03:08to be unlimited according to the president's will.
03:13Prabowo's plan to form a large cabinet is also not missing.
03:16From his maneuvers, he attracts all political parties into his government, including the PDIP and PKS.
03:22Gibran responds to the PDIP who will enter the Prabowo cabinet.
03:25The former mayor of Solo said that the cabinet arrangement was handed over to Prabowo
03:29who, of course, has considerations and anyone who will get a ministerial position.
03:34Gibran does not deny the assumption that his father, President Jokowi Dodo,
03:38helped arrange the new government cabinet of Prabowo Subianto.
03:41The help is an input to Prabowo.
