Eid al-Fitr is a special occasion for Muslims worldwide, marking the end of Ramadan, a month of fasting and spiritual reflection. It is a time for celebration and gratitude for the strength to overcome desires through self-discipline and prayer. The essence of victory during this time lies in mastering one’s emotions, avoiding harmful behaviors, and deepening devotion through acts of charity and remembrance of God.
In October 2024, President Prabowo Subianto highlighted the core objectives of the Republic of Indonesia during a cabinet meeting. These objectives, based on the 1945 Constitution, include protecting all citizens and the homeland, promoting general welfare, advancing national education, and contributing to global peace. President Prabowo’s administration has taken significant steps towards achieving these goals by prioritizing the construction of livable homes, enhancing food security, and launching healthcare initiatives to improve the well-being of every Indonesian.
To promote general welfare, economic policies have been implemented to protect consumers’ purchasing power, reduce foreign dependency, and create job opportunities. Initiatives like the Danantara sovereign wealth fund and the Red and White Village Cooperatives Program demonstrate the government’s commitment to economic growth and stability. Education is also a priority, with school renovation plans and welfare programs for educators aimed at improving learning environments and equipping classrooms with modern resources.
President Prabowo’s active involvement in advocating for global peace and humanitarian aid reflects Indonesia’s neutral stance in international conflicts. By participating in forums and advocating for ceasefire agreements, Indonesia continues to contribute to peacekeeping efforts worldwide. Despite challenges, President Prabowo’s dedication to upholding the principles of the 1945 Constitution and Pancasila remains strong. Through data-driven policies and tangible benefits for the people, the administration is working towards improving life expectancy, economic growth, educational quality, and enhancing Indonesia’s global role in promoting peace and harmony. President Prabowo’s leadership is guided by Indonesia’s founding values, paving the way for a promising future for the nation.
