Jaja Miharja Admits to Sewing a Suit on Short Notice to Fulfill an Invitation to the Palace

Happy news comes from senior actor Jaja Miharja who has just received the Bintang Budaya Parama Dharma award. However, behind this proud moment, there is actually a unique story colored by a little panic.

The invitation process to the State Palace turned out to be very sudden. This was revealed by Jaja's father when met in the Tebet area, South Jakarta, on Wednesday (27/8/2025). He admitted that he was only contacted on Saturday for an event that would be held on Monday.

"Dad, on Monday, not the invitation on Monday, the invitation was on Saturday. It was really sudden," said Jaja Miharja.

Even more surprising, the person who contacted him directly was a minister, namely Fadli Zon. The minister admitted to having difficulty finding Jaja's father's contact until he finally managed to connect.

"'Jaja, where have I been looking for you?' he said. 'I said I have, right, I have my phone number.' 'I couldn't find it,'" Jaja recounted, mimicking their phone conversation.

After successfully connecting, the invitation to the Palace was conveyed directly. He was asked to attend early on Monday morning, which made him panic because he hadn't prepared suitable clothing.

"Come to the Palace on Monday at 6," he continued.

Due to the very tight schedule, Jaja Miharja had to hastily sew a new suit to be appropriately presented in front of the President.

"I didn't forget that I didn't have any clothes, whatever. Sewing in a hurry. Right away. The tailor was asked to stay up late," he said while laughing.

The suit he hastily sewed is what he proudly wore when receiving an award from President Prabowo.

"Here it is, finally done," he said while pointing to the suit he wore during the interview. A unique story behind a historic moment in the life of the legend.
