Raden Djuanda Kartawidjaja, usually referred to simply as Djuanda, served as Minister of Communications in seven cabinets from 1946 to 1949 and 1950 to 1953. As Minister of State in 1949 and Minister of Welfare from 1949 to 1950. Djuanda was Indonesia"s final Prime Minister in Sukarno "Karya" cabinets, the final cabinets of the Liberal Democracy Era (prior to the Guided Democracy period) and as First Minister from 1959 until his death in 1963.
Djuanda"s death and the abolition of the post of Prime Minister in the Indonesian Republican system allowed far greater power to be exercised by the Presidentnow being given full ruling power with minimal oversight, as both Head of State and Head of Government.
This had an enormous impact on Indonesian politics, allowing the constitutional legality of the autocracy of Sukarno and Suharto. Juanda International Airport, located in Surabaya, is named after him, who suggested development for the airport.
