Timeline

1971

Mochamad Ridwan Kamil (born 4 October 1971), alternatively

1999

After obtaining his college degree, he went to the United States to apprentice at architectural firms before winning a scholarship in 1999 to study at the College of Environmental Design, University of California, Berkeley in the United States.

2001

He graduated in 2001 with a Master of Urban Design degree and work experience at a Berkeley government department.

2004

After working as an architect in Hong Kong, in June 2004 Kamil and his partners founded Urbane, an architecture firm based in Bandung, West Java.

He introduced modern designs into his work that ranges from commercial buildings and university towers to museums and mosques.

He is also known for creating open public spaces in crowded residential areas in Bandung as his pro bono work.

2006

In 2006, Kamil was the winner of the British Council's Young Creative Entrepreneur Award, representing Indonesia in the International Young Design Entrepreneur of the Year award.

2008

Urbane Indonesia was listed in the BCI Asia Top 10 Awards from 2008 to 2010 and again in 2012.

Kamil was the pioneer of the 'Indonesia Berkebun' (Gardening Indonesia) movement to build amateur gardens in the cities of Indonesia.

the community project is established in fourteen cities in Indonesia, with membership approaching 4000.

Kamil and Urbane Indonesia projects in Indonesia include

International projects include

2013

He was also the mayor of Bandung from 2013 to 2018.

As an architect, he designed iconic structures in Indonesia and other countries in Asia with his Urbane architectural firm and lectured at the Department of Architecture, Bandung Institute of Technology.

Kamil spent almost his entire life in Bandung where he went to public schools and studied architecture at Indonesia's leading state engineering school, the Bandung Institute of Technology.

Kamil stepped into politics ahead of the 2013 Bandung mayoral election as a surprise candidate endorsed by the Islamist Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) and the nationalist Great Indonesia Movement Party (Gerindra), two rising parties from different ends of Indonesia's political spectrum that united to reform the city and prevent the position to go into the hands of the big parties at that time.

Under the big parties, Bandung had been racked by corruption scandals.

A few weeks after the June 2013 vote, 2003-13 Bandung mayor Dada Rosada became a corruption suspect himself and later received a 10-year jail sentence.

PKS and Gerindra experimented by offering a clean, telegenic candidate without political affiliation but with known professional achievements through his iconic designs.

Kamil, who until now is unaffiliated to any party, decisively defeated seven opponents in the race with 45% of votes, which almost tripled what his closest rival got, before becoming mayor of one of the most populous cities in Indonesia at the age of 42.

Similar to the 2013 experience, Kamil received endorsements from smaller parties, including the Islamist United Development Party that provided him a running mate, Tasikmalaya Regent Uu Ruzhanul Ulum.

Kamil agreed to this arrangement, realizing he was popular among media-savvy urban voters, especially around Bandung, but weak among those who live in rural areas like Tasikmalaya.

Kamil again won decisively with 33%, four percentage above his closest rival from Gerindra.

Kamil's victories in 2013 and 2018 proved that an unaffiliated candidate could win in Indonesian elections if the person has popular appeal, cultivated through strong media campaigns, and good communications with parties of all stripes.

Despite his Western education and pluralist attitudes, Kamil understands how to build rapport with Islamists in Indonesia, the country with the world's largest Muslim population, in particular in West Java that is known for its Islamic conservatism.

During his reign, he started the project for Bus Rapid Transit in Bandung.

The Bus Rapid Transit combined electric bus, light trains, and cable car to alleviate the traffic jam in Bandung.

The project is planned to start on 2023.

In one of his speech, Kamil claimed that he have given a 1 trillion rupiah grant to Nahdlatul Ulama, one of the biggest Sunni Islam movement in indonesia.

The West Java branch of Nahdlatul Ulama claimed that they only received 2.4 billion rupiah from Kamil every year, and Kamil is only doing it to bolster his image.

The West Java branch of Nahdlatul Ulama claimed that such speech could be interpreted as corruption and the missing funds could be classified as graft.

Kamil explained to Nahdlatul Ulama that the financials of the grant could be held accountable, and the government of West Java has correctly been giving 1 trillion rupiahs for the past 4 years for the need of the students of pesantrens affiliated with Nahdlatul Ulama.

Kamil is known to frequently construct mosques.

One of his biggest mosque construction under his administration is the Masjid Al-Jabbar, that costed 1 trillion rupiahs.

The construction of the mosque receives critiques from the public as the funding to build the mosque is better used to construct mass transportation, fixing infrastructure, and repairing damaged school buildings.

In 2022, Kamil is planning to build a mosque in Depok area to accommodate locals that are looking for mosque after going home after work.

2015

Kang Emil is an Indonesian architect and politician who was the 15th Governor of West Java, the largest (most populous) province of Indonesia.

2018

Being a popular mayor with a nationwide appeal, several big parties courted Kamil to run in the 2018 West Java gubernatorial election on their tickets but as a running mate to bolster the actual candidate for governor, who would be an affiliated politician.

PKS and Gerindra, who had become stronger parties by 2018, also decided to pair their own members in a ticket.

2019

He obtained Doctor (honoris causa) in Public Administration degree from Dong-a University in 2019 for his role in developing dynamic governance system for West Java Province.
