Jakarta, Oct. 23 -- Former Gojek chief Nadiem Anwar Makarim has been appointed Minister of Education and Culture, a position previously occupied by Muhadjir Effendy, now Coordinating Minister of Human Development Culture.
Being the only millennial representation in the cabinet, Makarim appealed for support from the young generation. "To fellow millennials, I ask for your support, as I am the sole representative of our generation in the cabinet," said the 35-year-old in Jakarta, Wednesday.
His appointment is expected to create significant breakthroughs in human resources development, especially while preparing to enter the job sector, one of President Joko Widodo's main visions for his second term in office.
