Speculation over a possible broader cabinet reshuffle has resurfaced as President Prabowo Subianto is scheduled to swear in new appointees to his government on Monday following corruption-related dismissals and amid growing concerns over the economy.The ceremony on Monday will inaugurate Nanik Sudaryati Deyang as the new head of the National Nutrition Agency (BGN), which oversees Prabowo’s signature free nutritious meal program, alongside two new deputies, Maj. Gen. Trenggono and Agustina Arumsari, according to State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi last week.
The leadership change came after Prabowo last Tuesday sacked the agency’s head Dadan Hindayana and his deputies Sony Sonjaya and Lodewyk Pusung, who were later arrested as suspects in a corruption investigation tied to the program.
