Joko Widodo, Indonesia's first leader without deep roots in the era of dictator Suharto, was sworn in as president Monday but faces huge challenges to enact a bold reform agenda.
The inauguration, which was attended by foreign dignitaries including Malaysian Prime Minister Najib abdul Razak and his wife, Rosmah Mansor, capped a remarkable rise for a softly-spoken politician who was brought up in a riverside slum.
Widodo, known by his nickname Jokowi, worked his way up through local politics before securing the presidency in July following a close race against controversial ex-general Prabowo Subianto.
