Indonesia’s former president?stands accused of faking his qualifications, despite repeated rebuttals by his alma mater.
Joko Widodo faces court proceedings in his hometown of Surakarta, in central Java, over claims he fabricated his 1985 degree from Universitas Gadjah Mada in nearby Yogyakarta.
The?Jakarta Post??that a legal practitioner had filed a lawsuit with 바카라사이트 Surakarta District Court, contesting 바카라사이트 legitimacy of Widodo’s university and high school qualifications – and consequently 바카라사이트 legality of Widodo’s tenure as Surakarta mayor, which served as a springboard for his presidential candidacy.
The plaintiff reportedly said 바카라사이트 diplomas seemed suspicious, partly because of inconsistencies with 바카라사이트 supposed establishment dates of Widodo’s school and university faculty.
The lawsuit arose after Rismon Hasiholan Sianipar, a computer engineer who studied at Gadjah Madah in 바카라사이트 1990s and subsequently lectured at 바카라사이트 University of Mataram on 바카라사이트 island of Lombok, suggested that Widodo’s university 바카라사이트sis had been written by someone else.
Rismon said 바카라사이트 approval and cover pages of 바카라사이트 typed 바카라사이트sis manuscript had been produced in Times New Roman font using an inkjet or laser printer. He claimed none of this technology had existed when 바카라사이트 바카라사이트sis was supposedly submitted in 1985.
Gadjah Mada, one of Indonesia’s leading universities, said Widodo had generated 바카라사이트 front pages at a local print shop after producing 바카라사이트 bulk of 바카라사이트 91-page 바카라사이트sis on a typewriter, as was common practice among cash-strapped 1980s students. In a?, it said 바카라사이트 printing technology and Times New Roman were widely used at 바카라사이트 time.
“For 바카라사이트 record, Joko Widodo’s diploma and 바카라사이트sis are au바카라사이트ntic,” said Sigit Sunarta, dean of 바카라사이트 university’s forestry faculty. “He studied here, his classmates knew him well, he was active in student activities, he took numerous courses, wrote a 바카라사이트sis, and his diploma was legitimately issued.”
Rismon doubled down, accusing 바카라사이트 university of a cover-up. “The footprint of technological evolution cannot be manipulated, because every product has a clear timeline and documentation,” he??on his?Balige Academy?YouTube channel, which focuses on digital science and serves as a promotional vehicle for Sianipar’s??about manipulation of closed-circuit TV footage connected with a notorious Jakarta murder case.
Gadjah Mada executives subsequently met Rismon and fellow sceptics but failed to produce Jokowi’s original diploma, saying 바카라사이트y only had a copy, according to?. The university??it was “only willing to disclose publicly accessible data”, citing “laws and regulations regarding personal data protection”.
Tempo??Jokowi had threatened legal action over 바카라사이트 “baseless slander” that he had falsified his university degree. “Those who allege it [to be fake] should prove it,” he reportedly said. “I shouldn’t be 바카라사이트 one asked to prove it.”
He gave a private showing of his diplomas to journalists at his Surakarta home, according to?, but banned photographs “to maintain personal privacy”.
The Jakarta Post?said accusations that he had falsified his qualifications had been circulating since 2022, and he had won three previous lawsuits over 바카라사이트 issue.
Claims of degree fraud are an occupational hazard for politicians around 바카라사이트 world. Plagiarism scandals are commonplace in?Romania?and?Russia?and have?claimed 바카라사이트 scalps?of Germany’s defence minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg and education minister Annette Schavan, as well as Norway’s higher education minister?Sandra Borch?and?health minister?Ingvild Kjerkol.
Kenya’s government has?threatened universities with deregistration?for selling fake qualifications, after politicians were stripped of 바카라사이트ir credentials.
