One Year of Prabowo–Gibran: A Red Report Card from the Public

CELIOS has released the results of its One-Year Performance Evaluation of the Prabowo–Gibran administration, assessing program achievements, leadership, budget governance, policy communication, and law enforcement. The evaluation was conducted through a panel survey of 120 journalists from 60 national media outlets and a public survey of 1,338 respondents across Indonesia.

The results show a red report card in almost every sector. Prabowo Subianto scored 3 out of 10, Gibran Rakabuming Raka 2 out of 10, the National Police (Polri) 2 out of 10, and the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) 3 out of 10. A total of 56 percent of the public said that only a small portion of political promises had been fulfilled, while 43 percent said none had been fulfilled at all. Prabowo’s electability fell by 34 percent due to the mismatch between promises and policies.

Government performance was rated poor by 72 percent of respondents (43 percent poor and 29 percent very poor), while 80 percent said policies did not meet the public’s needs and 64 percent rated leadership quality as low. On budget governance and policy communication, 81 percent said budget management was not transparent and 91 percent rated government communication as poor or very poor.

In the legal sector, 75 percent of the public said law enforcement was becoming increasingly ineffective, and 43 percent said anti-corruption efforts were ineffective. Security-sector reform was seen as not yet underway, while Polri and TNI were considered to still rely on a repressive approach.

In the economic sector, 84 percent of respondents said taxes and government levies were burdensome, and 53 percent said economic stimulus and assistance did not help meet their daily needs. The gap between fiscal policy and people’s real-world circumstances is becoming increasingly apparent, particularly for the middle- and lower-income classes.

Most of the public called for a change in policy direction. A total of 96 percent supported a cabinet reshuffle, 98 percent supported streamlining ministry nomenclature, and 58 percent said coordination between institutions was poorly aligned. The most urgent issues highlighted by the public were job creation (23.5 percent) and controlling the prices of basic necessities (22.4 percent).
