JAKARTA: Indonesian President Joko Widodo named a former president’s son from an opposition party as land minister, as part of a cabinet revamp seen as an effort to consolidate power in his final year in office.
Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono, the eldest son of former president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, was appointed as Agrarian and Spatial Planning Minister on Wednesday (Feb 21). He replaces Hadi Tjahjanto, who will now move to become the coordinating minister for political, legal, and security affairs.
