A senior campaign aide to Prabowo Subianto claimed that the likely winner of the Feb 14 presidential election would involve outgoing President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo in the selection process for members of his Cabinet in the incoming administration.

Economist Drajad Wibowo of the Prabowo-Gibran Rakabuming Raka campaign team told Kompas daily on Thursday that with his vast experience in dealing with multiple economic challenges in the past 10 years, outgoing President Jokowi could help select the most credible candidates especially for the economic team.
