JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto inquired about the whereabouts of several governors and vice governors during the National Coordination Meeting (Rakornas) of the Regional Financial Access Acceleration Team (TPAKD) held at Jiexpo, Jakarta, on Thursday (22/10/2026).
This moment occurred as Prabowo was searching for West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi (KDM) and East Kalimantan Vice Governor Seno Aji at the event.
Initially, Prabowo greeted several governors and vice governors present at the gathering.
However, he suddenly asked about the absence of West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi (KDM).
"Where is KDM? The one closest isn’t present. Must be busy," Prabowo remarked.
While greeting the vice governors, Prabowo addressed East Kalimantan Vice Governor Seno Aji.
However, Seno did not stand up or respond to Prabowo's greeting.
The head of state then joked about Seno’s official travel funds needing to be returned.
"East Kalimantan Vice Governor Seno Aji. Vice governor, come on, this is noted. The travel money needs to be returned," he said.
Some of the governors present at the Rakornas included Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung, North Maluku Governor Sherly Tjoanda, West Sumatra Governor Mahyeldi Ansharullah, Banten Governor Andra Soni, East Nusa Tenggara Governor Melkiades Laka Lena, and Papua Mountains Governor John Tabo.
Several vice governors in attendance included South Sumatra Vice Governor Cik Ujang, Riau Islands Vice Governor Nyanyang Haris Pratamura, and Aceh Vice Governor Fadhlullah.
