The Constitutional Tribunal had no doubts. Scandal with the diploma and the resignation of the vice president

Ahmad Muzani announced the resignation of Gibran Rakabuming Raka as Indonesia's vice president. Gibran, son of former president Joko Widodo, submitted his resignation letter in Jakarta. His educational qualifications were challenged during the 2024 election campaign, leading to rulings from the Constitutional Court and Supreme Court that deemed his Singaporean diploma insufficient. A new vice president will be elected within 60 days by the National Assembly from two candidates proposed by the president. Gibran's resignation coincides with ongoing protests in Indonesia, where citizens demand lower living costs, anti-corruption measures, and action against forest fires.
