"It's okay to be smart, if the one is smart. To be honest, my GPA is only 2.7. But being a minister is also brave. Be careful. The value does not guarantee. What guarantees it is from association, danleadership. But is it okay to do it, after I graduated from Fakfak because at that time I had a difficult life, access to communication was not as good as it is now. So I then studied in Jayapura, it was not at University Cenderawasih). In private high school, " Bahlil said as quoted on the page, October 4, 2022.
