TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - President Prabowo Subianto delivered a strong anti-corruption message to his Red and White Cabinet at the retreat in Magelang on October 24-27, 2024, said Deputy Manpower Minister Noel Ebenhaezer.
"The president made an analogy, saying that a fish begins to rot from the head. Therefore, the leader must set a good example and maintain integrity," he said on Friday, October 25, Antara reported.
Noel said Prabowo made his stance clear by pledging to personally model anti-corruption behavior and indicating that cabinet members who refuse to uphold this standard or pursue personal interests while performing their duties should resign.
Prabowo coupled his anti-corruption directive with a call to members of the Red and White Cabinet to maintain teamwork.
Solid teamwork within the cabinet is needed to maintain stable conditions in the country amid the current global geopolitical instability, the deputy minister said.
"President Prabowo said that we will face a big crisis later. However, we must become a solid team," he stressed.
The briefing during the retreat at the Military Academy in Magelang was also marked by a question and answer session between Prabowo and members of the cabinet.
Ministers, deputy ministers and special presidential envoys were able to offer suggestions on how to perform their duties more effectively.
The retreat will be held in Magelang as part of the briefing of ministers, deputy ministers, and heads of agencies and institutions in President Prabowo's cabinet.
The retreat is also expected to strengthen cooperation and coordination among ministries under Prabowo's administration.
Earlier, the cabinet members arrived at the Military Academy on Thursday evening. They boarded an Air Force C-130J Super Hercules aircraft from Jakarta's Halim Perdanakusuma Air Base at 1:38 p.m. local time and landed at Adisucipto International Airport in Yogyakarta province at around 3 p.m. local time, then traveled by road to Magelang.
