Prabowo-Gibran administration review and institutional focus

Overview

As the Prabowo-Gibran administration marks its second year in October 2026, it continues to navigate a landscape of institutional expansion and significant public scrutiny. A central pillar of its governance is the newly established Ministry of Human Rights (KemenHAM), which focuses on the protection and enforcement of human rights with a proposed 2027 budget of Rp953.1 billion. In a recent move to bolster economic stability, President Prabowo inaugurated the National Council for Financial Welfare. Replacing the National Council for Financial Inclusion under Government Regulation No. 42 of 2024, this new body is directly led by the President and chaired by Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto. The council aims to shift the economic focus toward enhancing household financial resilience, wellness, and long-term security, particularly for farmers, fishermen, and MSMEs. President Prabowo emphasized that prosperity should be measured by real increases in household income and purchasing power rather than statistical data alone. To further these goals, President Prabowo recently pledged to increase central government funding to local governments to support regional development. The administration aims to disburse up to Rp400 trillion in loans by 2027, targeting 28 million beneficiary families, including farmers, fishers, and MSMEs, to boost productivity. Social development remains centered on the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program and a shift from social assistance toward community empowerment via the National Socio-Economic Single Data (DTSEN). Public sentiment remains deeply divided. While Poltracking Indonesia reports a public trust level of 64.8 percent, a survey by the Komite Sadar group found that 78.8 percent of respondents believe the administration has failed. Major concerns include deforestation and forest fires (83.5 percent), corruption and abuse of power (70.6 percent), and high education costs (67.4 percent).
