Illustration: Indonesia needs quality workers who are competitive in the future. However, the quality of education is still lagging behind. One of them is the ability to read and math since elementary education has not matched the minimum competence.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS -- Indonesia Education Roadmap 2020-2035 must be put in place as the state\'s vision that will then serve as a strategy for sustainable education policy, even if the government changes. Thus, this education road map must be made as a grand design of education that answers educational problems by taking into account the complexity of educational problems in Indonesia.

The five-yearly elections often have an impact on education governance, which is not simultaneous because of changing leadership, both at the central and regional levels. As a result, not only are the synergies between the central government and regional administrations in managing education constrained, fundamental problems in education, such as inequality and teacher governance, have also not been resolved.
