‘Like Kennedys and Bushes’: Indonesia president-elect Prabowo’s family business empire draws parallels, concerns - Channel News Asia

Quick Summary:

The president-elect’s youngest sibling Hashim Djojohadikusumo has ambitions to expand his already lucrative business portfolio.

Analysts are raising concerns over the family’s growing commercial and political clout.

Meanwhile, economist Andry Satrio Nugroho from the Institute for Development of Economics and Finance (INDEF) said one way to prevent an abuse of power is when Mr Prabowo forms his Cabinet, key economic positions should be awarded by merit to those technically skilled and suited to the role, with no outside business interests.
