By maintaining tradition and culture from the previous administration to the next government, then the government can easily achieve the determined targets for the betterment of the people.

"I think the good tradition for next (government), second we should have to estafette the cultures so we will not start from the beginning. We should continue the tradition," Jokowi said.
