Jokowi-JK Government Faces Dissatisfied General Population

Liputan6.com, Jakarta - The result of intensified research and examination of public's satisfaction to current government conducted by Indo Barometer blatantly shows that there is a drastic decline of public satisfaction towards Indonesian government under President Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo and Vice President Jusuf Kalla from the originally 57,5% to 46% within the period of 6 months.

Indonesian Cabinet Secretary, Pramono Anung feels that such decline in so many ways acceptable knows that the survey conducted was done during the time in which the Indonesian economy was in profound crisis as the repercussion to the global scale one where rupiah was drastically weakened against US dollar.

"We ought to understand that the conduction of survey was at the time when the economy was largely subjugated from the global economic slowdown which has caused for the weakening of rupiah rate and skyrocketing of US dollar rate. So, I suppose it is not surprising to see a declining interest and satisfaction among general population," Pramono said on Friday 9 October 2015.

He is convinced that a paradoxical result confirming increased of satisfaction is very likely should the survey is conducted this week.

"If the survey was done today, I am pretty sure that the percentage would go up because our rupiah is growing stronger and therefore likely to make economic stability possible," he concluded. (Akp)
