Throughout Indonesian history, the title of First Lady (Indonesian: Ibu Negara, lit. 'Mother of the State') or, in an instance, First Gentleman (Indonesian: Bapak Negara, lit. 'Father of the State') has been used to refer to the wife or husband of the president of Indonesia. The constitution does not provide for the position in any sense, but it continues to influence Indonesian society significantly, usually in social affairs.
Taufiq Kiemas, husband of President Megawati Sukarnoputri, remains the only first gentleman to date.
The current President of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, is separated from his wife. Thus, the First Lady's seat is vacant for his presidency. In Prabowo's presidency, most of the functions of the First Lady on social affairs are assumed by the current Second Lady, Selvi Ananda.
