According to the minister, the introduction indicates that the government transition process and the sustainability of development can go well.
He also assessed that the delegates participating in the forum praised President Joko Widodo who introduced Subianto as his successor for the next government.
"That is a tradition that must be maintained by this nation. A great nation maintains the continuity of its development," he added.
