President of the Republic of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, was spotted enjoying a dinner with the 7th President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo (Jokowi), at Bakmi Jowo Bu Citro 1 in Solo, Central Java, on Sunday, July 21, 2025. The two presidents sat together at the same table, accompanied by Vice President Gibran Rakabuming and the Head of the Agency for Development Control and Special Investigation (BAPPISUS), Aris Marsudiyanto. Prabowo and Gibran sat across from each other, while Jokowi and Aris sat facing each other. During the meal, they indulged in bowls of noodle soup, accompanied by glasses of water and tea. Before the dinner started, Prabowo and Jokowi had a brief one-on-one chat. The private dinner lasted for about an hour, with other officials from the Red-and-White Cabinet present at nearby tables. Among them were Cabinet Secretary Lt. Col. Teddy Indra Wijaya, Foreign Minister Sugiono, State Secretary Minister Prasetyo Hadi, Coordinating Minister for Food Affairs Zulkifli Hasan, Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia, State-Owned Enterprises Minister Erick Thohir, Minister of Communications and Digital Affairs Meutya Hafid, and Deputy Minister of Culture Giring Ganesha. One figure who grabbed attention was Aris Marsudiyanto, known as the Head of the Election Winning Body (Bappilu) of the Gerindra Party for the West Java region. Aris, a loyal supporter of Prabowo, has been by his side since their days at the Military Academy in 1992. Besides his political involvement, Aris also serves as the CEO of one of Prabowo’s companies and founded the National Movement for Love of Prabowo (GNCP) in 2019. Throughout multiple election campaigns, Aris has been actively supporting Prabowo, particularly in West Java.
