Credibility of Indonesia’s central bank and Constitutional Court at stake

On 27 January 2026, Indonesia saw two political appointments that will test the independence of two of its most important state institutions. One was the appointment of Gerindra Party politician Thomas Djiwandono, a nephew of President Prabowo Subianto, as deputy governor of Bank Indonesia (BI, the central bank of Indonesia). The other was the selection of senior Golkar Party politician Adies Kadir as a Constitutional Court justice.
