Gibran Rakabuming Raka

His paternal grandmother, Sujiatmi, died on March 25, 2020.

In July 2019, Gibran was named a favourite candidate for the 2020 election of Surakarta's mayor, his father's position before becoming Governor of Jakarta and later President of Indonesia, according to a survey by Slamet Riyadi University based there. In September, Gibran registered as a member of PDI-P, the same political party as Jokowi, in order to run in the mayoral election.

Gibran then started Markobar, a martabak chain, in 2015, and the chain had 29 locations in Indonesia by 2017. Jokowi commented in 2017 that though he did not initially approve of Gibran's business, Gibran's company ended up being valued higher than his furniture company.

Gibran married Selvi Ananda on 11 June 2015, and the couple had their first child, Jan Ethes Srinarendra, on 10 March 2016.

In 2010, Gibran founded Chilli Pari, a catering business based in Surakarta. According to Gibran, he was inspired to set up the company after noticing the lack of a catering service for a conference centre owned by his father, but was opposed by Jokowi who intended for Gibran to continue his furniture business. The company grew and became focused on providing services for wedding parties.
