History
[edit]The institutional milestones that deal with youth and sports development have actually existed since the early days of Indonesian independence. In the first Cabinet structure formed on August 19, 1945. The presidential cabinet had a Ministry of Education led by Minister Ki Hajar Dewantoro. Sports and physical education activities were under the minister of education. The first cabinet, which was less than three months old, was later replaced by the parliamentary Cabinet II under the leadership of Prime Minister Sutan Sjahrir who was inaugurated on November 14, 1945.[1]
In 1999–2004, during the National Unity Cabinet and the Mutual Assistance Cabinet, the Ministry of Youth and Sports was merged into the Ministry of Education and Culture so that youth and sports affairs were only managed by the echelon I structure, namely the Directorate General of Non-Formal Education, Youth, and Sports. When President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono came to power, the Ministry of Youth and Sports was re-established in 2004.[1]
