        "content": "<p>JAKARTA - President Prabowo Subianto referred to the Strait of Hormuz\nin the Iranian region, stating that it determines the fate of many\nnations. From this strait, which is approximately 33-95 kilometres wide,\nPrabowo said that the Strait of Hormuz determines global oil prices.\n\u201cNow, the war in the Middle East proves that one strait, the Strait of\nHormuz, determines the lives of many nations and the price of oil,\u201d\nPrabowo stated during his briefing before members of the Cabinet Merah\nPutih at the Palace in Jakarta on Wednesday (8\/4\/2026). Because, Prabowo\nconveyed, 70 per cent of energy and trade routes in Asia pass through\nIndonesian waters. \u201cAre we aware that the Strait of Malacca, the Sunda\nStrait, the Makassar Strait, and so on are Indonesian seas? Are we aware\nof how important Indonesia is, how key Indonesia is, 70 per cent of\nenergy,\u201d said Prabowo. Meanwhile, Indonesia is seen by him as a country\nblessed with abundant natural resources compared to other nations.\n\u201cBecause sometimes we ourselves cannot protect our environment. Our\nforests are cleared, trees on our mountains are felled, as a result\nwater cannot be retained, leading to drought,\u201d said Prabowo. Due to\nIndonesia\u2019s importance in the eyes of the world, he emphasised to the\nCabinet Merah Putih members to lead this nation well. \u201cProperly and\ncompetently,\u201d Prabowo stressed.<\/p>",
