JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - President of the Republic of Indonesia Prabowo Subianto suddenly called three members of the Malay orchestra group, Lebah Begantong, during the peak event of PAN's 28th anniversary held at JCC, Senayan, Jakarta, on Friday evening (18/9/2026).
The trio was approached by Prabowo, who stood up from his seat, and invited them to the stage to take a photo together.
This moment occurred just before Lebah Begantong finished their performance.
After the photo, Prabowo also gave gifts to the three members of the music group, although the exact contents of the gifts remain unknown.
The Malay music group performed a song containing traditional pantun poetry while greeting the notable guests attending the PAN anniversary.
At the beginning of their song, they greeted Prabowo directly.
"We sing here bringing Malay culture. To entertain all ladies and gentlemen, the awaited presence is here. We warmly welcome RI 1," sang Lebah Begantong.
They then greeted other invited guests, such as Vice President Gibran Rakabuming and PAN Chairman Zulkifli Hasan.
"This one we proudly greet. Vice President Mas Gibran Rakabuming Raka. A leader who is polite, friendly, and wise. Accompanying the president with the Asta Cita program," the lyrics continued.
"Mr. Zulkifli Hasan, commonly called Pak Zulhas. A hard worker who works sincerely. Achieving food self-sufficiency makes the president satisfied. To realize the Golden Indonesia," they added.
