Onward Indonesia Cabinet

The Onward Indonesia Cabinet (Indonesian: Kabinet Indonesia Maju) was sworn in on 23 October 2019 by President Joko Widodo. The president reshuffled this cabinet 13 times. The last reshuffle occurred on 11 September 2024.
On 22 December 2020, the president replaced six ministers. The most notable addition to the cabinet was businessman Sandiaga Uno. His admission into the cabinet following his former running mate in the 2019 presidential election Prabowo Subianto, made it the first time in Indonesia's history that all former contestants of a single presidential election were in the same cabinet. The new ministers were sworn in on 23 December 2020. Five deputy ministers were also appointed, three of them to new deputy minister positions.
On 30 March 2021, the president proposed to the People's Representative Council changes to the structure of his cabinet, seeking to merge the Ministry of Research and Technology and the Ministry of Education and Culture into a single ministry named the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology. He also proposed a new ministry, the Ministry of Investment to be spun off from the Coordinating Ministry for Maritime and Investments Affairs, but remaining under the latter's coordination, while the National Research and Innovation Agency would be separated as a new non-ministerial agency. On 9 April 2021, the People's Representative Council approved the changes. On 13 April 2021, presidential spokesman Ali Mochtar Ngabalin said the second reshuffle would take place in the second week of April. However, the reshuffle was announced on 28 April 2021. Unusually, it not only reshuffled some ministers, but also disbanded a ministerial institution during the mid-term.
Since the National Mandate Party joined the government coalition on 25 August 2021, there has been controversy over a potential third cabinet reshuffle to allow the party to join the cabinet. On 23 September 2021, the party stated to be ready to take place and contributing together with the government in the cabinet. It was said that the third reshuffle will take place between the end of September 2021 and early October 2021; however, the deadline passed and no reshuffle took place. On 25 October 2021, President Spokesperson Fadjroel Rachman was appointed as Indonesian Ambassador to Kazakhstan, leaving his post vacant. The position was then filled by Joko Widodo himself.
On 17 November 2021, the question of the third reshuffle arose again. However, sources from unnamed president officials revealed that the future reshuffle was not because of issues regarding minister performance, but due to replacement after several ministers contracted COVID-19 and became physically disabled, severely limiting their ability to serve in their positions. Since the end of 2020, Joko Widodo opened many deputy minister posts in many ministries, however, the positions are yet to be filled. This includes the Deputy Minister post at Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, adding to the long list of vacant deputy minister posts created in his presidency. On 18 November 2021, the People's Consultative Assembly formally requested Joko Widodo to conduct a reshuffle as fast as possible due to the large number of vacant deputy minister positions.
On 8 March 2022, a question of the third reshuffle arose again.
