Prabowo Praises Legislative Performance: 13 Bills Passed, 10,883 Public Aspirations Gathered

President Prabowo Subianto has praised a number of achievements by the legislative branch, from the completion and enactment of 13 bills by the House of Representatives (DPR) together with the government to the collection of 10,883 public aspirations from 38 provinces by the Regional Representative Council (DPD RI).

This was conveyed by Prabowo in his state address at the 2026 Annual Session of the People’s Consultative Assembly (MPR RI) and the Joint Session of the DPD RI and DPR RI at the MPR/DPR RI Building in Senayan, Jakarta, on Friday.

“The DPR RI together with the government has completed and enacted 13 bills up to July 2026,” said the President.

Prabowo said that national development is not the work of the president alone, but the result of joint efforts by all state institutions, central and regional governments, and all Indonesian people.

The President noted that the MPR RI continues to carry out its role as the ‘Rumah Kebangsaan’ (House of Nationality) by strengthening constitutional literacy and safeguarding Pancasila, the 1945 Constitution, the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, and Bhinneka Tunggal Ika.

“Democracy must not stop at electoral procedures. Democracy must fulfil the basic rights of the people and adhere to all articles in our Constitution,” he said.

Meanwhile, Prabowo noted that the DPR RI together with the government has completed and enacted 13 bills up to July 2026.

One of these legislative products is Law Number 2 of 2026 on the Protection of Domestic Workers, which according to Prabowo is a form of recognition that every job has dignity and every worker is entitled to protection.

Prabowo also highlighted the performance of the DPD RI, which has collected 10,883 aspirations from 38 provinces. These aspirations were then brought into dialogue with the Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas) as input for the preparation of the 2027 Government Work Plan (RKP).

“The DPD is also continuing to advocate for the Archipelagic Regions Bill, which has now entered tripartite discussion with the DPR and the government. God willing, it will be completed,” said Prabowo.

On Friday, the MPR RI, DPR RI, and DPD RI held the Annual Session of the MPR RI and the Joint Session of the DPR RI-DPD RI, one of the agendas of which was the Address by President Prabowo Subianto in the context of the Submission of Performance Reports of State Institutions and the State Address of the President of the Republic of Indonesia in the context of the 81st Anniversary of the Independence of the Republic of Indonesia.

In addition to the speech, the government will also screen a video of government performance achievements.
