The leader of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Indonesia’s largest Islamic organization, has affirmed the group’s ongoing support for the government. KH Miftachul Akhyar, Rais Aam of the PBNU, stated this support is contingent on the government upholding core values. While details of these specific values weren’t immediately elaborated upon in the report, the statement indicates a conditional alliance. NU’s backing is significant given its substantial influence within Indonesian society and politics. This commitment suggests a continued period of collaboration, but with a clear boundary regarding acceptable governance. The organization will reassess its position should the government deviate from these unspecified principles. This stance reflects NU’s role as a key stakeholder in Indonesia’s political landscape.
