        "content": "<p>President Prabowo Subianto has appointed Mohammad Jumhur Hidayat,\nChairman of the All-Indonesian Labour Confederation (KSPSI), as the\nMinister of Environment (LH). The appointment ceremony took place at the\nState Palace in Jakarta on Monday (27\/4). Through this appointment,\nJumhur will replace Hanif Faisol, who has now been assigned by Prabowo\nas Deputy Minister Coordinator for Food Affairs. Jumhur has a long\nhistory as an activist in labour groups. He is known to have founded the\nIndonesian Workers\u2019 Welfare Foundation (YKPI) and the Independent\nIndonesian Workers\u2019 Union Federation (Gaspermindo). He was subsequently\ninvolved in several other labour organisations, such as the Indonesian\nDrivers\u2019 Union Federation (Gapersi) and the Indonesian Wholesale Mobile\nTraders\u2019 Association. Jumhur was previously trusted by the sixth\nPresident of Indonesia, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, as Head of the Agency\nfor the Placement and Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers. He held\nthat position for seven years from 2007 to 2014. In the 2014\nPresidential Election, Jumhur shifted to become a volunteer for Joko\nWidodo as Coordinator of the Free People\u2019s Alliance (ARM). However, his\npolitical stance differed in 2019 when he supported Prabowo. In 2020,\nJumhur, a senior figure in the Coalition for Action to Save Indonesia\n(KAMI), was arrested by police in connection with an alleged case of\nspreading false news. He became entangled in a criminal case after\nposting his opinion on his Twitter or X account criticising the\nratification of the Job Creation Bill into law on 7 October 2020. Jumhur\ndescribed the Job Creation Bill as being issued for primitive investors\nand greedy entrepreneurs. He was subsequently sentenced to 10 months in\nprison in that case.<\/p>",
