Indonesian President Joko Widodo is facing public criticism and accusations of bias over his perceived political interference and lack of neutrality as he campaigns for the leading candidate in the presidential election. This involvement has rattled Indonesian markets due to election uncertainty and concerns about the finance minister's future. Additionally, Indonesia's top security minister resigned from President Widodo's Cabinet to focus on his vice-presidential run. Despite reports of discontent and speculation about ministerial resignations, President Widodo insists that his cabinet is working normally and denies any rifts, even as the election season is likely to have offered an insignificant boost to economic growth.
