Prabowo vows to fight corruption as he is sworn in as Indonesia’s president

Prabowo Subianto has promised to combat corruption in Indonesia as he took oath as the president of the world’s fourth most populous country. Wearing a traditional black hat and navy suit with a woven maroon and golden sarong, the 73-year-old former general and defence minister was sworn in in parliament on Sunday to succeed populist leader Joko “Jokowi” Widodo. Prabowo, facing allegations of rights abuses as a military commander, swept the elections in February to lead the country of 280 million people. Prabowo, who previously sought the presidency three times, also assured that he would be president for all Indonesians and challenged the nation to help him deal with the country’s problems.
