As times goes by and state leadership changes, presidents adopt different styles to form their cabinets. On Monday (21/10/2019), 12 ministerial candidates were summoned one by one to the Presidential Palace.
After being received by the President’s personal secretary, Anggit Nugroho, at the Palace’s verandah, they were received by President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo, who was alone as Vice President Ma’ruf Amin was in Japan to attend Emperor Naruhito’s coronation. Like in job interviews, the candidates faced questions about their commitment, and the President explained to them their potential jobs. After around 15 minutes, they came out with a white folder bearing the logo of the Presidential Secretariat.
