Inauguration ceremony
The inauguration ceremony started at 10:00 local time (03:00 UTC). It was held on the People's Consultative Assembly parliamentary session led by assembly speaker Taufiq Kiemas.[1]
Mistake
Mention of names and titles
During the inauguration ceremony, Taufiq Kiemas as chair of the session, incorrectly mentioned the title attached to the President's name Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. At that time, Taufiq said that his doctoral degree would become a doctor.[2]
Bapak Dokter....eh Doktor Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono,
(in English: Mr. Doctor... eh Doctor Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono,)
Another mistake occurred when Taufik mentioned President SBY's name, which should have been Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, to become Susilo Doctor.
Terima kasih kepada Presiden Republik Indonesia, Bapak Susilo Doktor.... maaf.... Doktor Haji Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono,
(in English: Thanks to President of Indonesia, Mr. Susilo Doctor.... sorry.... Doctor Haji Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono,)
Apart from that mistake, Taufiq's mistake also occurred when he did not mention the names of Vice President Jusuf Kalla and 3rd president and 7th vice president of Indonesia, B. J. Habibie during the opening speeches for the plenary inauguration of the president and vice president.
