Biography
editIvan Doly Gultom was born in Binjai, North Sumatra on 4 March 1967. Between 1988 and 1991, he studied for a bachelor's degree at Pepperdine University. Before being elected into office, Gultom worked as CEO of several companies.[1]
He ran in the 2009 Indonesian legislative election from Jakarta's 3rd electoral district - covering North Jakarta, West Jakarta, and Thousand Islands Regency, but failed to win a seat.[2][3]
Gultom once more participated in the 2014 Indonesian legislative election and won 30,462 votes, but failed to secure a seat, with Tantowi Yahya being Golkar's sole representative from the Jakarta 3 district.[4] Following his defeat, he remained active politically, endorsing the ultimately unsuccessful bid of Basuki Tjahaja Purnama and Djarot Saiful Hidayat in the 2017 Jakarta gubernatorial election.[5]
In 2017, Yahya resigned from DPR as he was appointed Indonesia's ambassador to New Zealand. Gultom was appointed in his place and was sworn in on 30 May 2017.[6] In the council, he is part of the seventh commission (on energy, research and technology, and the environment). In May 2018, he noted that Freeport-McMoRan's Grasberg mine was violating regulations by exporting ore despite not possessing an environmental impact analysis or a smelter permit. He added that the Ministry of Environment and Forestry should revoke the mine's permits.[7]
