In a plenary meeting at the House of Representatives (DPR) on Tuesday last week, a wave of legislators interrupted the proceedings to question a number of changes the new president has announced for his cabinet. Among other things, they questioned Persident Joko Widodo's break-up of the Tourism and Creative Economy Ministry, which no longer included the creative economy aspect.
Legislators from the Golkar Party and the National Mandate Party (PAN), which supported failed presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto in the July election, said they would write President Jokowi about the matter. "The Creative Economy Ministry was promised in the campaign but now it has been eliminated," said Tjatur Sapto Edy, chief of the PAN's faction in the House.
