Indonesia's President-elect Prabowo Subianto wins 59% of votes.

Indonesia's president-elect Prabowo Subianto secured a landslide victory in February's presidential election, winning 59% of the vote. However, his party, Gerindra, fell short of a parliamentary majority, winning only 14.8% of seats in the House of Representatives. With just 48% of seats supported by parties backing his candidacy, governance may face potential confrontation and deadlock unless backroom negotiations and deals are struck.
