Prabowo Labels Bahlil, Dasco, and Cak Imin as 'Kancil' Leaders

President Prabowo Subianto has referred to several political party chairmen—PKB Chairman Abdul Muhaimin Iskandar, Gerindra Party Daily Chairman Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, and Golkar Party Chairman Bahlil Lahadalia—as ‘kancil’ (mouse deer) leaders. “In Indonesia, there are two kancil leaders, Gus Imin and Sufmi Dasco,” Prabowo said while attending the peak celebration of PKB’s 28th anniversary in Jakarta on Thursday evening. “The third kancil might be the Golkar Chairman. When the three of them gather, it’s troublesome,” Prabowo added. Prabowo expressed appreciation for PKB’s support of the government’s economic policy direction, often referred to as Prabowonomics. He noted that some PKB cadres were wearing Prabowonomics t-shirts. “You have given me extraordinary appreciation. Even Gerindra doesn’t wear t-shirts like yours,” Prabowo remarked. He asserted that the government’s economic concept is based on Pancasila economics, constitutional economics, and people’s economics. The event was also attended by Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka, Gerindra Party Daily Chairman Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, Golkar Party Chairman Bahlil Lahadalia, National Mandate Party Chairman Zulkifli Hasan, and Democratic Party Chairman Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono.
