JAKARTA - Six new ministers from the Advanced Indonesia Cabinet wore white shirts and light blue jackets when President Jokow Widodo was introduced to them, Tuesday, December 22.

This attribute looks different from the introduction of the previous ministers in October 2019. At that time, the ministers were introduced to the public wearing batik clothes.

"The jacket has a good material, if it is hot it doesn't make you sweat, if it rains it doesn't make it wet, it means that everyone who uses it doesn't matter in any weather so the minister can work at any time, in any atmosphere ready to work," said Deputy for Protocol, Press, and Presidential Secretariat Media Bey Triadi Machmudin reported by Antara, Wednesday, December 23.

The ministers were summoned one by one by President Joko Widodo on the veranda of the Merdeka Palace together with Vice President Ma'ruf Amin. Despite wearing casual clothes, the six ministers still wore masks and also "face shields".

"If the color blue is just cool, 'eye catching', when to stay fresh, bright, cheerful, uplifting," added Bey.
