Response to this claim
The education documents Gibran Rakabuming Raka submitted to run for vice president in 2024 did not meet Indonesia's legal requirement of a senior high school education or its equivalent.
“Through the Constitutional Court ruling, which was confirmed and upheld by the Supreme Court, Gibran no longer meets the requirements to be Vice President, especially in this context the education requirement. (Translated from Indonesian. Original: Lewat putusan MK yang dikonfirmasi dan dikuatkan oleh Mahkamah Agung, maka Gibran tidak lagi memenuhi syarat sebagai Wakil Presiden, terutama dalam konteks ini adalah syarat pendidikan)”
Why we used this label
The reference point is whether the education documents Gibran Rakabuming Raka submitted to run for vice president in 2024 met Indonesia's legal requirement of a senior high school education or its equivalent, which the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court found they did not. Denny says the rulings show Gibran is no longer qualified and argues that the House should pursue impeachment, which condemns Gibran's continued tenure on documents found deficient.
