JAKARTA: Presumptive presidential election winner Prabowo Subianto has key wins in several battleground provinces to thank for clearing his path to the nation’s highest office, as indicated by various quick counts predicting the outcome of the 2024 general election.

Prabowo Subianto called for unity and said “this victory must be a victory for all Indonesians.” His 30-minute speech was punctuated by thanking dozens of allies including those in the military and paying tribute to past leaders.
