JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) will inaugurate the Head and Deputy Head of the Archipelago State Capital Authority (IKN) at the State Palace, Jakarta, Thursday, March 10, tomorrow.

Not only that, at the same time President Jokowi will also inaugurate the definitive Governor of South Sulawesi Andi Sudirman Sulaiman to replace Nurdin Abdullah who was caught in a corruption case.

"Yes (the inauguration tomorrow, ed)," said a VOI source within President Jokowi's administration via text message, Wednesday, March 9.

Jokowi indeed closed the meeting who would sit as Head and Deputy Head of the Nusantara IKN Authority Agency. However, it was reported that the person who was appointed as the Head of the IKN Authority was Bambang Susantono.

Bambang is a former Deputy of Transportation in the United Indonesia Cabinet II for the 2010-2014 period. Not only that, he has also served as Deputy Coordinating Minister for the Economy.

In addition, Bambang is also known as an expert in infrastructure and transportation planning.

It was previously reported that President Jokowi had planned to inaugurate the Head of the Authority in March. He conveyed this information himself while attending the inauguration of the NasDem Tower in Gondangdia, Menteng, Central Jakarta.

"As soon as possible, maybe next week we will inaugurate," said Jokowi on Tuesday, February 22.

At that time, Jokowi said that the candidate for the head of the IKN Nusantara authority would be filled with someone who was not from a political party. However, the former governor of DKI Jakarta did not clearly mention the names of the candidates for the head of the IKN authority body who were already in his pocket.
