At a campaign event in Malang hosted on Thursday by the Democratic Party, Prabowo appeared to make
an off-the-cuff remark, promising a "very important" job for party chairman Agus if he won the election.

Presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto has promised to appoint Democratic Party chair Agus Harimurti
Yudhoyono (AHY) to a “very important and strategic” position in the next government if he wins the
election on Feb. 14.

"If Prabowo and Gibran [Rakabuming Raka] are given the mandate [as president and vice president], I will
give AHY a very important and strategic job," Prabowo said on Thursday during a campaign event in
Malang, East Java,

He also praised the Democratic Party for supporting his campaign, and praised Democrats founder and
former president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) for his service to the nation. "Pak [Mr.] SBY is the
best son of Indonesia, he gave his best. He brought success in difficult circumstances, [including] the
tsunami in Aceh. It was very important that he brought peace to Aceh province, resolving years of
conflict," said the former army general. Prabowo then referred to Agus as an asset to the nation, expressing
his belief that the former Indonesian Military personnel would eventually be appointed to a position at the
national level.

"We need the brightest sons and daughters from all regions, tribes, religions and races. We need the best of
the nation's young generation to build this country, manage our wealth and eliminate poverty," he said

Prabowo also promised to secure Indonesia’s wealth by managing the country’s natural resources, and
conveyed his commitment to reducing poverty. Speaking after the event, Agus told reporters that he and
Prabowo had never discussed any future government appointment.

"We are all honored that our candidate, Pak Prabowo Subianto, was present. Not only that, he also
expressed his enthusiasm that insyaallah [God willing], Indonesia will be more advanced and prosperous,"
he said.
