For the President, this method is acceptable as long as the corrupt individuals repent and return their stolen assets to the state.
On the same occasion, President Prabowo also reminded all state officials to obey the law and fulfill their obligations to the nation and the country.
“You, who have received facilities from the state, pay your obligations. As long as you fulfill your duties and obey the law, we can move forward together,” the President stated.
Additionally, the head of state warned officials to remain loyal only to the nation, the state, and the Indonesian people.
“If you're loyal to the people, let’s move forward together. If not, believe me, I will clean up the apparatus of Indonesia,” he concluded.
