Jakarta. BeritaSatu Media Holdings has just announced the winners of the 2022 Public Leader Awards, which honors governors who have shown good governance and stellar infrastructure development, among others.

"You are a role model to the community. Hopefully, all of you will continue to become inspiring and transformative leaders, and uphold the entrusted mandate to serve the community," Vice President Ma’ruf Amin said at the 2022 Public Leader Awards ceremony on Friday.
