      Yudhoyono, an Experienced Leader, First to Win Direct Presidential Poll
      Arab News 


        
      Gen. TNI (Retd.) Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, popularly known as SBY, was 
born in Pacitan, East Java, on Sept. 9, 1949. In the first ever direct 
presidential election in Indonesia in 2004, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, running 
on a platform for "more just, more peaceful, more prosperous, and more 
democratic Indonesia" was elected as the 6th president of the Republic of 
Indonesia, gaining a landslide 60 percent of the popular vote over incumbent 
President Megawati Sukarnoputri.

      President Yudhoyono graduated from the Military Academy in 1973 and 
topped his class. He received his fourth star in 2000. He is also an 
accomplished scholar. He was educated in the United States, where he received 
his Masters degree in management from Webster University in 1991. He continued 
his study and earned a Doctorate Degree in Agricultural Economics from Bogor 
Institute of Agriculture, West Java, Indonesia, in 2004. President Yudhoyono 
was awarded two honorary doctorates in 2005, respectively in the field of law 
from his alma mater, Webster University, and in political science from 
Thammasat University in Thailand.

      He was the commander of the United Nations Military Observers and 
commander of the Indonesian Military contingent in Bosnia-Herzegovina from 
1995-1996. For his outstanding service, President Yudhoyono was decorated with 
24 medals and awards, including the UNPKF Medal, the Bintang Oharma, the 
Bintang Mahaputera Adipurna and the Bintang Republik Indonesia Adipurna, the 
highest national medal for excellent service beyond the call of duty.

      Prior to being elected, President Yudhoyono held various important 
government positions, including minister of mining and energy and coordinating 
minister for political, social, and security affairs in the National Unity 
Cabinet under President Abdurrahman Wahid. He again served as coordinating 
minister for political, social, and security affairs in the Gotong Royong 
Cabinet under President Sukarnoputri. It was in his capacity as coordinating 
minister that he became internationally recognized for leading Indonesia's 
counter-terrorism efforts.
