Personal life
Education
After completing high school at SMA Negeri 1 Bogor, he obtained a bachelor's degree in International Relations from Parahyangan Catholic University's Faculty of Politics in 1998. He received a Masters of Arts in Development Studies from Monash University in 2001 and a PhD in Politics from Australian National University in 2006.[1]
Family
Arya is the eldest son of three siblings. His father, Toni Sugiarto, was a police Brigadier General and member of the People's Representative Council until his death in 1997. His mother, Melinda Susilarini, is a former beauty pageant contestant whose father was the caretaker of Cipanas Palace. Arya married Yane Ardian in 2002. They have two children: a son and a daughter.[1][2]
Career
Following the May 1998 fall of Suharto, Arya became one of the founders of the National Mandate Party (Partai Amanat Nasional or PAN). Between 1998 and 2001, he was a politics lecturer at Parahyangan Catholic University. Afterwards, he moved to Paramadina University, where he still lectures.[2] He was also as a political observer, although he resigned from active position in 2010 due to conflict of interest with his career in PAN.[3]
As mayor
He ran in Bogor's 2013 mayoral election with Usmar Hariman as deputy, receiving 132,835 votes (33.1%) with the runner-up Ahmad-Aim pair receiving 131,080 (32.7%).[4] His campaign promises included a 100-day program to improve public transport, urban hygiene, bureaucracy and civil administration in addition to the handling of street merchants.[5] Three months into his tenure, he received a second place award from Indonesia Digital Society (behind Surabaya Mayor Tri Rismaharini) due to establishments of online systems for the city.[6] He has also received awards from the Ministry of Health and the National Body of Demographics and Family Planning.[7]
Early in 2015, he established a 24-hour call center for Bogor residents to submit complaints.[8] His leadership has been criticized for perceived lack of performance[9] and perceived intolerance over the prohibition of the Shi'a Ashura celebration, anti-Ahmadiyya sentiments and the continued closure of the GKI Yasmin church.[10]
His name was raised as a possible candidate for deputy governor (paired with Bandung mayor Ridwan Kamil) in the 2018 West Java gubernatorial election, although Arya ruled out running.[11] During a 2014 controversy over a proposed law to scrap direct elections of regional leaders, he was one of the mayors and governors who opposed their party's position, although unlike then-Jakarta governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama he did not resign from his party.[12]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Arya tested positive for the disease following his return from a visit to Turkey and Azerbaijan, and was treated as he showed symptoms.[13]
