Ex-Bukalapak CEO joins Indonesian gov’t in advisor role
Muhammad Rachmat Kaimuddin, former CEO of Bukalapak, has joined the Indonesian government’s Coordinating Ministry for Maritime and Investment Affairs, reported CNBC Indonesia, citing Minister Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan.
This development comes following Kaimuddin’s resignation from Bukalapak last week, a few months after the company went public.
Kaimuddin has been given the role of technology sustainability development special advisor and will be working on Indonesia’s technological transformation goals. He will report directly to Pandjaitan.
The Ministry coordinates with several other ministries in the Indonesian government that cover industries such as transportation, tourism, energy and mineral resources, and maritime affairs and fisheries.
