General Agus Subiyanto (born 5 August 1967) is an Indonesian general who previously served as the 23rd Commander of the Indonesian National Armed Forces. He was appointed by President of Indonesia Joko Widodo in November 2023, replacing the retiring Admiral Yudo Margono.
Early life and education
Agus Subiyanto was born in Cimahi, West Java on 5 August 1967.[1] His life journey was full of twists and turns. When he was 5 years old, his mother left him, his younger brother and his father. The peak of the bitter period he went through occurred when he was in the second year of high school. At that time, his father Dedi Unadi, who was also a TNI soldier with the rank of Chief Sergeant, died in a traffic accident in 1984. He had to continue living with his younger siblings and stepmother. He lives on his father's pension money.
Before he died, his father often expressed the hope that Agus would follow in his footsteps as a soldier. After high school in 1986, Agus Subiyanto took a test at the Kodam III/Siliwangi NCO Candidate School. As a result, he was declared not to have passed but was recommended to attend Officer Candidate School without a test. Not understanding what it meant, Agus decided to apply as a security guard at the Internusa Mall in Bogor, but was rejected. In 1988 Agus Subiyanto took the Indonesian Military Academy entrance test. This time it was successful and he graduated with the second best grades in West Java. Agus graduated from the academy in 1991.
