Indonesian Minister of Human Rights Admits to 13 Years Without a Spouse, Confirms Having Three Girlfriends
In an unprecedented revelation, Indonesia’s Minister of Human Rights, Natalius Pigai, has confessed to being single for 13 years, allowing insight into his personal life while emphasizing professional integrity.
Pigai, during a recent virtual event, discussed his appointment process for high-ranking officials within the ministry. He emphasized his meticulous selection criterion, stating, "I always choose the best individual for the job, never based on personal connections. I thoroughly investigate each candidate’s record, focusing on ethics, morality, integrity, and anti-corruption."
However, Pigai’s talk took an unexpected turn when he addressed his marital status. He stated, "I’ve been single for 13 years, with only three girlfriends whom I treat well." Pigai claimed that his peaceful and open social media presence is evidence of this, with no harassment or issues arising from his relationships.
The Minister also emphasized professional decorum, warning against inappropriate behavior among staff. He cautioned against "fooling around" (translation of "main mata") between colleagues and was emphatic about dismissing any officials found engaging in online or offline gambling. Pigai stated, "Both online and offline gambling are forbidden. If anyone is found, they will be dismissed immediately."
Pigai’s candor about his personal life is unusual for a high-ranking official, leaving the public with mixed reactions. While some appreciate his openness, others question the relevance of his personal life to his ministerial duties.
This unexpected revelation from Indonesia’s Minister of Human Rights has sparked curiosity and debate among the nation’s vast and varied public. As the discussion unfolds, one thing remains clear: Natalius Pigai’s appointment to the ministry has brought a fresh perspective to Indonesia’s human rights landscape.
