1969

He attended a local elementary school from 1969 to 1975.

At age 13, his father took him to Tanjungkarang (now called Bandar Lampung) to enroll him in junior high school level at the State Islamic Teachers Training School (PGAN), against the boy's wishes.

While attending PGAN, Zulkifli lived in a rented room in lodgings for boarders.

He left PGAN in his fourth year at the school.

He took an entrance exam for Madrasah Tsanawiah and passed.

Without parental consent, he enrolled at Tandjungkarang State Senior High School.

After four months, his father discovered he had switched schools and forced him to leave the high school.

Armed with a little money from his mother, Zul moved to Jakarta.

2014

Additionally, he served as speaker of the MPR from 2014 to 2019 and was Minister of Environment and Forestry from 2009 until 2014.

Zulkifli Hasan was born to Hasan and Siti Zaenab, who were farmers in Pisang village in Penengahan, South Lampung.

In later life, he would claim to have experienced economic hardship as a child, saying he learned to work hard by selling eggs produced on the farm.

A member of the Islam-based National Mandate Party, he is also currently serving as the party's chairman since 2015.

In a 2015 interview, he said his parents had wanted him to become like Buya Hamka, an Islam-oriented journalist and author from Sumatra.

"But I refused. I wanted to migrate to Jakarta."

Arriving in Jakarta as a teenager without prior acquaintances or relatives, Zulkifli supported himself with jobs from washing taxis to selling drinks.

In his later years, Zulkifli once visited Lembaga Pendidikan Insani (LPI), an educational institution whose operational costs came from Islamic donations.

He told students there: "If I ate eggs and could become a minister, then you who eat chicken should be able to become president."

Bang (Brother) Zul, as he was known, remained close to the people of his hometown in Lampung and would present assistance in times of disaster.

Before becoming a politician, Zulkifli worked as a civil servant and then started his business.

His father had advised him not to be a follower but to be a leader, even if that meant starting from something small, so he quit the civil service.

Zulkifli's subsequent corporate positions included:

After starting his political career, he did not abandon his entrepreneurial interests.
