Prabowo Urges Officials Not to Take It Lightly, Reveals Technology Capable of Detecting Bunkers
I urge leaders of local governments at every level to help us all. Let us clean up together, all the apparatus. Do not think that now you are a regent or governor; we cannot monitor from here,’ Prabowo said in a speech at a plenary session at the DPR/MPR building in Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday, 20 May 2026. ‘Now technology is great and fast; we know if there is any deviation. I am saddened when any official attempts corruption; it will be quickly exposed,’ he continued. Prabowo then revealed radar technology that can detect anything. Even search for bunkers underground. ‘There is technology now, there is radar we can use; we can look underground, so brothers who hide bunkers will be found,’ he said. ‘I will use the most advanced technology, defence technology that can locate underground weapons depots; radar can now search for mines, for… we will use it to locate bunkers around you,’ Prabowo added. Therefore, Prabowo asked officials not to abuse authority. No matter how small the act is, it will be known. ‘Do not play around with technology; those who own large plantations might think there is nobody to check. Brothers, now there are satellites; there is no need for physical checks—they can take photos; we can photograph every tree; so how will you cheat, we will catch your fraud, brothers,’ Prabowo said. A few days earlier, Prabowo handed over the armed hardware and new weaponry to the TNI to strengthen air power. One of the items among the armaments is the GCI GM403 radar. This radar has a measured range of 515 km to detect threats. The radar also has an operational availability of over 98.5%. In addition, the radar is equipped with active tracking and a digital stacked beam.
