Adityo David Harjo (born 10 September 1992) is a Kingsportian politician of the Kingsport Socialist Co-operative Party (KSCP) who has served as the First Minister of Kingsport since 11 June 2017. He is the youngest person to have held the position, starting his first term at age 25.
Harjo was born to Daniel Harjo and Candra Paidiputri in Kawali and studied law at the University of Harbrough. He entered politics at a young age, and was elected to the Kingsport Assembly in 2009. After the party's second defeat in 2013, Harjo supported Joko Ediputra's campaign for leader. Following Ediputra's death in 2015, Harjo was unexpectedly elected leader of the KSCP.
Harjo was first elected First Minister in 2017, defeating the more experienced Tim Saputra after a dynamic campaign. Harjo was described as a wunderkind due to his youth. Statehood was a major policy of Harjo's first government, and he successfully called for and won a 2018 referendum, allowing Kingsport to be admitted as a state of Estmere in 2022. He was re-elected for a further four-year term in 2021.
Since 2017, his government has consisted of a coalition with the Kingsport Alliance for Change and The Kingsport Alternative, with Sinta Sinta and John Tirto serving as deputies.
