        "content": "<p>Jakarta \u2013 The Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI),\nKaesang Pangarep, stated that criticism is a normal and essential part\nof democracy. However, he regretted instances where criticism is\ndelivered in ways that could potentially muddy the situation. This\nstatement was made in response to the open criticism voiced by\nIndonesia\u2019s 10th and 12th Vice President, Jusuf Kalla (JK). \u201cIn\ndemocracy, criticism is commonplace. But what we need right now is a\ncalming atmosphere, not statements that could cause uproar,\u201d he said on\nMonday, 13 April 2026. He invited all national figures to jointly build\na soothing narrative and strengthen public trust. According to Kaesang,\namid a society that requires certainty, leaders should present\nthemselves as part of the solution. \u201cIndonesia today does not need\npolitical manoeuvres to weaken each other. What is needed is unity and\ncooperation, working side by side with the people to overcome various\nchallenges,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
