Analysts Suggest Cabinet Reshuffle for Consolidation of Prabowo's Government
Intelligence and geopolitical observer Amir Hamzah stated that a cabinet reshuffle should involve replacing ministers, not just administrative adjustments. This statement was made on Monday, April 27, 2026.
Amir emphasized the need to replace all ministers who came from the era of President Joko Widodo's (Jokowi's) administration, specifically mentioning Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia. The goal is to ensure that President Prabowo Subianto's government is not seen as a shadow of the previous one.
According to him, the presence of old figures with divided political loyalties could slow down government consolidation and potentially create a dualism of power. Amir noted that in power politics, single loyalty is crucial for the effectiveness of strategic state decision-making.
