Ministers and deputy ministers serving in the Red and White Cabinet, led by President Prabowo Subianto, are set to depart for the Military Academy in Magelang District, Central Java, this afternoon for a special briefing.

According to the plan, the president's aides will travel via Halim Perdanakusuma Air Base, Jakarta, aboard an aircraft belonging to the Indonesian Air Force (TNI).

"We will leave at 1 p.m. Western Indonesian Standard Time," Minister of Cooperatives Budi Arie Setiadi noted in a short message received here on Thursday morning.

Earlier on Wednesday (October 23), the minister revealed that the briefing would last four days until Sunday.

"There will be a four-day briefing expected to make this Cabinet solid, enabling us to work properly for the nation, the state, and the people," he remarked at the Presidential Palace, Jakarta.

During the first plenary meeting of his Cabinet at his office yesterday, President Prabowo expressed hope that the planned ministerial briefing at the Military Academy would help instill courage and heroism in Cabinet members since Magelang stood as a center of resistance against colonial forces.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I hold high regard for teamwork. Thus, I would like to invite you all to participate in an additional briefing and establish coordination at the Military Academy in Magelang, Central Java," he told his aides.

On the same day, Minister of Forestry Raja Juli Antoni informed reporters that the Cabinet Secretariat had distributed uniforms and shirts that the ministers and deputy ministers would be required to wear during the team-building agenda.

He revealed that the participating officials have also received footwear, sports attire, and headwear.

Meanwhile, Minister of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Arifatul Choiri Fauzi stated that the ministers and deputy ministers would stay in tents while participating in a series of activities prepared at the Military Academy.

However, she admitted to knowing no details about the activities planned for the Cabinet members.
