Indonesia’s 2024 election has produced a result that most analysts had predicted, i.e., the election of Prabowo Subianto as the next president of Indonesia. With tacit support from President Joko Widodo, Prabowo was able to cut across the aliran line in the race, receiving significant support from Islamist, nationalist, and traditionalist voters. This, however, does not mean the end of aliran in Indonesian politics as the results from the legislative election indicated.
