Professor Ryaas Rasyid: President Jokowi's Government Assessed as the Worst in Indonesia's History

IPDN Professor Ryaas Rasyid assessed that the 10-year leadership of President Joko Widodo is the worst government throughout the history of the Republic of Indonesia. That statement was delivered in the Madilog podcast, quoted from the YouTube channel Forum Keadilan TV on Monday, April 13, 2026. Ryaas explained that his assessment is based on factors like leadership, management, and the rampant corruption. He mentioned that the period was marked by damage in various sectors, including state-owned enterprises and the increase in national debt, without any clear accountability. For example, he highlighted the Whoosh high-speed rail project, which was assessed to contain markups and corruption. Ryaas also mentioned there were efforts to protect that project from certain parties. This statement is part of his academic analysis of the government's performance. https://www.harianaceh.co.id/2026/04/13/pemerintahan-jokowi-terburuk-sepanjang-sejarah-ri/
