The Plenary Cabinet Meeting on Monday (20/10/2025) felt special as it coincided with the first anniversary of the Prabowo Subianto–Gibran Rakabuming Raka administration.
In his opening remarks, President Prabowo presented several achievements from the first year of his government alongside the ministers of the Red-and-White Cabinet. One of the major achievements was in the education sector — part of the 4th pillar of the Asta Cita vision, which includes strengthening human-capital development, science, technology, education, health, sports achievements, gender equality, and the role of women, youth, and persons with disabilities.
The President reported on the progress of Garuda Excellence Schools and People’s Schools, which are expected to help nurture an outstanding generation across all levels of society.
He also outlined digital innovations in education that provide students with access to interactive, technology-based learning tools as part of a more diverse learning system.
Education transformation is being implemented through the distribution of digital interactive devices (IFP) to every school.
“Flat panel, IFP, interactive flat panel. Inside, there is already a computer that can hold hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of pieces of content. Our entire syllabus will be stored there,” the President said.
