Istana denies Prabowo uses new spoon for every bite

JAKARTA - After being scolded of public for carrying two jets on an overseas trip, Istana denies that the president is also using a new spoon for every bite every time he has a meal. “It is simply not true”, says the Istana kitchen staff in a work interview, carrying a basket of at least 150 metal spoons to the incinerator facility. “To be frank, I don’t believe he uses different spoons. I barely see him eat; he only does it in his room with the secretary”. By the time this article is written, the presidential communication office has yet to respond to our inquiry about an online shop merchant receiveing order for 1500 metal spoons every week in Tokopedia, billed to the address of the presidential palace.
