Prabowo Subianto, President-elect of Indonesia for the 2024-2029 term, wasted no time in getting back to work just a week after undergoing surgery for a leg injury. He made an appearance at the 78th anniversary of Bhayangkara at Monas, Jakarta, on July 1, where he was welcomed by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and other dignitaries.
Dressed in a gray suit, Prabowo greeted Jokowi and the audience with a salute, receiving applause for his dedication. The day before, he had shared on his personal Instagram account @prabowo the news of a successful surgery.
Prabowo attributed his injury to two parachuting accidents during his time in the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI). He expressed gratitude to Allah SWT and the medical team at the National Defense Central Hospital in South Jakarta for their care.
Despite acknowledging the risks involved in his surgery, Prabowo remained focused on serving the country and its people. He thanked Jokowi for his support and prayers during the medical process.
