Overall ethical score
-22.08
Reasoned summary
Prabowo's social and economic programmes may create substantial benefit, but his ethical record remains burdened by unresolved military-era allegations and a presidency that has expanded military influence and restricted civic accountability.
This assessment presents six separate ethical dimensions rather than one overall moral score. Each result must be read with its evidence, plausible range, confidence, disputes, exclusions, severe-harm findings and sources.
Most significant negative evidence
The score is reduced by unresolved responsibility for past abuses, renewed military influence, repression of dissent, discrimination and weak accountability.
