JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Head of the Indonesian Government Communication Agency (Bakom) Syahganda Nainggolan stated that based on various survey agencies, public confidence in President Prabowo Subianto remains strong.

Syahganda also mentioned the satisfaction rate with Prabowo's government is above 50 percent.

"Oh, I think the latest Poltracking survey shows 55 percent, and then PPI reports a satisfaction level of 65 percent. In Poltracking today it's also nearly 60 percent if I'm not mistaken. There is still public confidence in President Prabowo," Syahganda said at the Food Coordination Ministry in Jakarta on Monday (19/10/2026).

"I think we appreciate all survey agencies," he added.

Therefore, Syahganda assesses Prabowo's electability remains strong as he approaches the two-year mark of his government.

"It's good (Prabowo's electability). Far above his election results before," Syahganda remarked.

According to Kompas TV, the Indonesian Political Parameter (PPI) survey recorded that 65.4 percent of respondents are satisfied with the government’s performance nearing the two-year mark of President Prabowo Subianto and Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka's administration.

In contrast, only 32.5 percent of respondents expressed dissatisfaction, while 2.1 percent did not respond.

In the survey titled "Evaluation of 2 Years of Prabowo-Gibran Governance" released in Jakarta on Sunday (18/10/2026), satisfaction with President Prabowo’s performance is recorded at 65.2 percent.

Meanwhile, as reported by Tribunnews, the trend of public satisfaction with President Prabowo Subianto and Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka's administration shows a gradual decline, reaching 55.1 percent in August 2026.

This finding was released by Poltracking Indonesia during a virtual presentation of survey results on government performance evaluation on Monday (31/8/2026).

"As it turns out, as of this day, the public satisfaction level for the Prabowo-Gibran government's performance is 55.1 percent for the month of August," said Executive Director of Poltracking Indonesia Hanta Yuda during the survey release broadcast online on Poltracking TV, Monday (31/8/2026).
