Gibran Rakabuming Raka (born 1 October 1987) is an Indonesian politician and businessman who is the 14th vice president of Indonesia. He is also the former mayor of Surakarta. He is the eldest child of the seventh President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo. In the 2024 Indonesian presidential election, he ran as the vice-presidential candidate of Prabowo Subianto.
Gibran completed his first nine years of education in Surakarta, before moving to Singapore where he studied at Orchid Park Secondary School. Despite his relatively short time in office, Gibran's impact on Surakarta has been significant, leading to him being named the most popular mayor in 2021, according to the Indonesia Indicator.[4][5]
Gibran's vice-presidential candidacy, at age 36, has sparked controversy. The Constitutional Court, led by his uncle Anwar Usman, allowed his run by making an exception for elected regional leaders. The General Elections Commission (KPU) faced ethics violations for letting Gibran register before adjusting the age requirement. Regardless, Prabowo and Gibran became the winners of the 2024 presidential election, having won about 96 million votes (59 percent).
