        "summary": "Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya has criticised commentators for spreading inaccurate information and forming public opinions based on flawed data, a phenomenon he terms \"inflation of commentators.\" He highlighted that despite such efforts, over 96 million Indonesians trust President Prabowo Subianto more than these experts, underscoring strong public confidence in the leadership. Teddy urged commentators to offer fact-based criticism without instilling unnecessary anxiety about the nation's stability, emphasising that the government welcomes constructive feedback for improvement.",
        "content": "<p>Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya has criticised commentators who\nfrequently present data to the public that does not align with facts. He\nstated that Indonesia has reached an \u201cinflation of commentators.\u201d He\ngave an example of a commentator on military and foreign affairs who\nlacks a background in those fields. \u201cCurrently, there is one phenomenon.\nWhat is it? There is something called the inflation of commentators. So,\nthere are many commentators. There are rice commentators, but their\nbackground is not in that area. There are military commentators, foreign\naffairs commentators. And these commentators\u2019 data is not in line with\nfacts, their data is incorrect,\u201d said Cabinet Secretary Teddy to\nreporters at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, on Friday, 10\nApril 2026. He added that these commentators have been attempting to\ninfluence the public by shaping opinions. Even before Prabowo Subianto\ntook office as President of the Republic of Indonesia. \u201cFrom the\nmajority, these commentators are those who have long tried to influence\ncitizens and shape public opinion. Even before Mr Prabowo became\npresident. So these commentators have influenced citizens,\u201d said Teddy.\n\u201cBut what is the fact? The fact is, more than 96 million citizens trust\nMr Prabowo more. They do not trust them. That is real evidence of public\ntrust. Not some assumption,\u201d he continued. However, Teddy reminded\ncommentators not to make statements that lead to anxiety about\nIndonesia. He allowed commentators to voice criticism, but it must be\nbased on facts and field data. \u201cSo, I think it\u2019s fine to have different\nviews, different opinions, please give criticism. But do not make\nstatements that lead to anxiety. Making people anxious about this\ncountry. Everything is stable, everything is under control. And let us\nall work together to achieve the best moving forward,\u201d he said. He hopes\nthat all citizens can pray for the good of the Motherland. Do not, he\nsaid, let there be parties trying to encourage others to pray for bad\nthings for Indonesia. He affirmed that the Indonesian government accepts\nvarious criticisms from all elements of society to serve as material for\nevaluation to become even better in the future.<\/p>",
