JAKARTA: President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo is not ruling out the possibility of another cabinet reshuffle before his second and final term ends in October, as reports emerge that he could sack ministers he perceives as disloyal and replace them with those loyal to him or his successor Prabowo Subianto.
“[A cabinet shake-up] can happen if I feel the need to do so. It’s still my prerogative,” the President told reporters on Tuesday (Aug 13) while on an inspection visit in Nusantara, East Kalimantan.
