Second Lady of Indonesia
Gibran assumed office as vice president on 20 October 2024, and Selvi Ananda became the Second Lady.[4] She is the second youngest second lady of Indonesia after Siti Rahmiati Hatta, wife of the first vice president Mohammad Hatta. She also became the General Chair of the National Crafts Council, succeeding Wury Estu Handayani. In January, she was appointed the central management of the National Crafts Council at the Vice President's Palace. The Dekranas management consists of the spouse/companion of ministers in Red and White Cabinet.[5]
In addition, she has assumed most of the functions of the First Lady on social affairs, as the First Lady's seat is vacant due to the separation of Prabowo Subianto and his wife Titiek Suharto in 1998.[6]
With the completion of the Vice Presidential Palace in January 2026, the office of vice president has begun its relocation process to Nusantara. She, her husband, and their two children will start to reside in Nusantara within 2026.[7]
