Prabowo Subianto Officially Declared Indonesia’s President-Elect

Prabowo Subianto has been formally declared the president-elect of Indonesia, after the electoral commission certified the results of the presidential election held in April. Subianto won by a landslide, receiving more than twice the votes of his two rivals. However, his opponents had challenged his victory, accusing him of widespread fraud and state interference. The Constitutional Court rejected their arguments and upheld Subianto’s victory. Subianto will take office in October, becoming Indonesia’s first president from outside the Jakarta elite.

The court’s ruling, while largely expected, was met with dissenting opinions from three judges who raised concerns about the president’s neutrality and the potential use of state resources to influence voters.
