Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono

Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) served as President of Indonesia (2004–2014). An academic and military officer turned politician, SBY is credited with steady economic growth, debt reduction measures, and international engagement during his two terms. His presidency is often described as technocratic, focused on macroeconomic stability, anti-poverty programs, and institutional strengthening, though some critics note limited structural reforms in inequality and governance challenges.
