Indonesia vice president resigns amid dispute over eligibility
Al Jazeera EnglishFactual
Indonesia’s vice president Gibran Rakabuming Raka has resigned amid a dispute over his educational credentials, submitting his resignation to President Prabowo Subianto and parliament. Court rulings found his overseas-education documents did not meet election requirements, and the vacancy will be filled by the People’s Consultative Assembly electing a replacement from two candidates nominated by the president within 60 days. The move comes as protests over the economy, corruption and wildfires intensify and as authorities probe other political controversies.
