“We must improve the quality of life of teachers including honorees and improve competence, we must provide trainings, upgrades and also all state organizers of civil servants, TNI-Polri we improve their standard of living salaries so that they can provide services to the people as well as possible,” Prabowo said.

Furthermore, Prabowo revealed that he and Gibran Rakabuming as presidential candidates already have a national transformation strategy aimed at increasing Indonesia’s prosperity and improving the quality of life.

One of them is through providing nutritious food for all Indonesian children and pregnant women.
