Accompanied by Gus Najih, Prabowo prayed in the room and seemed moved when he thought about the memories he had with Mbah Moen, a figure he highly respects.
The defense minister could not hold back his tears. “Pak Prabowo regards Mbah Moen as his own father,” Gus Najih told Observerid.com on Friday (6/5).
Prabowo then recalled the messages Mbah Moen conveyed to him, one being to always fight for the interest of little people.
“His messages always resonate within me. He once told me, ‘Mas Prabowo must always defend the little people,’” Prabowo imitated Mbah Moen as saying.
