President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono installed lawmaker and
self-proclaimed telecommunications expert Roy Suryo as the new youth and
sports affairs minister during an inauguration ceremony at the
presidential palace in Jakarta on Tuesday.
The event took place at 3 p.m., following Roy’s appointment by the president on Friday.
Yudhoyono also inaugurated the new Deputy Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Susilo Siswoutomo during the same ceremony.
Roy was appointed to the position amid strong criticism from the public over his ability to serve as the Youth and Sports Minister. Speaking to reporters on Friday, Roy admitted that the position was outside his skill set, but said he was ready to accept the challenge.
“I know this is not an easy job,” Roy said. “I know that people have very low expectations [of me]. I thank you for all the input... I’m aware this is a big job.”
