Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. President Prabowo Subianto has reprimanded his Special Envoy, preacher Miftah Maulana Habiburrahman, better known as Gus Miftah, following backlash over a viral video involving an iced tea vendor, Sunhaji, during a mass prayer in Magelang, Central Java.

Presidential Communications Office Head Hasan Nasbi confirmed on Wednesday (4/12/2024) that President Prabowo instructed Cabinet Secretary Major Teddy Indra Wijaya to order him to personally apologize to Sunhaji. 

“The President emphasized the importance of respecting common people, who work tirelessly to support their families,” he said, as quoted by antaranews.com.

In response, Gus Miftah visited Sunhaji at his home in Banyusari Village to offer a personal apology, which Sunhaji accepted.

The viral video, which sparked public criticism, showed Gus Miftah making remarks that many deemed inappropriate during a praying event. Following the incident, he issued a public apology, acknowledging his mistake and expressing regret for any offense caused.
