Veronika Tan is a 43-year-old woman born in Medan. She is well known as the (former) wife of Ahok, the 15th Governor of DKI Jakarta (2014 - 2017). The mother of 3 children (Nicholas Sean, Nathania, David Albeenner) from her marriage to Basuki Tjahaja Purnama or Ahok. She is not only famous as Ahok's former wife, but also as a cello player. Her musical abilities were also presented to the church as a piano player.
During Ahok's leadership as the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Mrs. Vero (as she is affectionately known) was also actively involved in supporting her husband's performance. Together with Happy Djarot Hidayat, the wife of Ahok's Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, Djarot Saiful Hidayat, she is often seen in the community, implementing DKI Jakarta government programs.
Married to Ahok on September 6, 1997, Veronika Tan is noted to have accompanied Ahok since starting his political career from the Bangka Belitung area. In 2004 as chairman of the PIB Party (Partai Indonesia Baru) East Belitung Regency, and then succeeded in becoming a member of the East Belitung Regency DPRD for the 2004-2009 period.
Veronika Tan faithfully accompanied her husband, who at that time ran but failed in the contestation for the election of the Governor of Bangka Belitung in 2007. In 2009, together with Ahok, she moved to Jakarta because Ahok was elected as a member of the DPR for the 2009-2014 period.
In 2012, Ahok and Jokowi were elected as Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta. This is where the Indonesian people begin to know this beautiful woman who is good at playing the cello. Her strong choleric character makes her not the same as the general female official who spends her time lavishly. Veronika Tan is famous for several social activities, which she even continued to do when Ahok was no longer governor.
Veronika Tan seemed to remain strong when Ahok was afflicted with the blasphemy case. As a young woman, she was so strong in taking care of her three children and still supporting her husband who was eventually sentenced to prison for 2 years. Until now, the Indonesian public continues to support Mrs. Vero who is strong through all the trials her family has been through.
The shocking news came at the beginning of the new year 2018, to be precise on January 5' 2018, Basuki Tjahaja Purnama filed for divorce from Veronika Tan on charges of infidelity. After going through a long court process. On Wednesday, April 4' 2018, Basuki Tjahaja Purnama or Ahok officially divorced Veronika Tan on charges of infidelity which were proven in court. Based on strong evidence, the Judge decided to end their marriage in accordance with Ahok's request for divorce from Vero.
Who is the man, the third person who caused the destruction of Ahok and Vero's household? He is Julianto Tio alias Ahwa, an entrepreneur, owner of the company PT Tio Niaga Jaya Lestari whose office is located in Penjaringan, North Jakarta, engaged in food and beverage industry machinery.
The relationship between Veronika Tan and Julianto Tio, which is said to have lasted for 7 years, has experienced ups and downs and dynamics. Juilanto Tio, who is already married and has a child, is reported to have been repeatedly visited by Ahok's family with good intentions asking him not to continue the relationship. In 2016, Ahok and their first son, Nicholas Sean Purnama, met Julianto Tio who was accompanying his wife to give birth at a hospital in Jakarta and asked the man to end their relationship, but got a negative response.
The culmination of suspicions about their long-standing affair was revealed on November 12, 2017, when Fifi Leti Indra posted on her Instagram while attending a wedding in Singapore, that she saw Veronika Tan and Julianto Tio in Singapore. Ahok's extended family also wondered what the two non-mahram members were doing. At that time, Veronika and Juliato were still both married and married.
"Evidence shows that there are conversations in which the material can be judged as a close relationship and tends to exceed the relationship of ordinary friends, romance or courtship or special relationships," said judge Sutaji, as quoted from www.cnnindonesia.com further said...
"With this evidence, the judge considers Vero to be in a relationship that violates household norms. The facts are supported by the statements of the witnesses. Judge Sutaji in his consideration said that the priest had given advice to the defendant to avoid Julianto in order to save his family. But the defendant did not want to stay away. Even the defendant in front of the plaintiff had communicated on a video call when he visited the plaintiff at the Brimob Headquarters," said judge Sutaji. "From the evidence, it is undeniable and it can be concluded that there was an affair with a man named Julianto Tio alias Ahwa," added Sutaji.
It was reported that during the trial process, Veronika Tan had regrets and asked for a reconciliation. According to Ahok in an interview with Daniel Mananta through his YouTube channel on Friday, July 3, 2020, his ex-wife had asked for a reconciliation or asked to come back as quoted from www.thinkrakyat.com more reported...
Veronica Tan's desire to return is unacceptable because Ahok has given up on the attitude of his ex-wife who is suspected of having an affair "He only gave two options, divorce or accept that he has a special friend, I said this violates a higher article above it, so for me I have to divorce," said Ahok.
Despite all the problems Veronika Tan went through, she remained strong as a mother to her children. Although the custody of their three children fell to Ahok, Veronika was still given the opportunity to take care of her children. Veronika is still seen taking her children to see a movie about their father.
It is noted that very few or even Veronika have ever expressed a defense against the alleged affair with Julianto Tio. a friend of hers, Wanda Ponika, as quoted by www.grid.id, said "This simple figure who is often expressionless proves a number of proverbs" "Silence is gold, let time answer, Gusti mboten sare.." "Hope you will continue to work, be happy with the children beloved. Have mercy on all the trials of life.." "Wanda Ponika (@wandaponika)..," wrote @wandaponika.
As a writer, I only reveal facts about Mrs. Veronika Tan's life and about her divorce. Is she having an affair? The court has already decided the case, but the deepest part of my heart is still wondering, whether a person with a fairly well-established family background, social life, religious life and education, can be so careless, having an affair when knowingly knows that the risk of his actions is the destruction of his family and home?
Despite all the events that had happened, Veronika Tan remained strong as a mother to her children and graciously accepted the court's decision. Now facing the fact that Ahok has remarried, Veronika Tan continues to live as a culinary entrepreneur. This business, which started as a hobby, has now kept her busy and in the media spotlight.
Through her Instagram account, as quoted by www.haibunda.com, Veronika Tan said "In the past I never dreamed of becoming an entrepreneur, when children today say entrepreneur. Everything starts with hobbies, things that I like and call my heart, my hobby is entertaining friends and family while barbequed at home took me to create a quality meat supplier business called alphaagroindonesia. I do all this because I like it. People say, doing business is difficult, if we don't like the business, it is better not to do it. This is what made me choose my three businesses,"
Besides running her businesses, Veronika Tan still continues to carry out her social activities and is regularly posted on her Instagram account.
At the end of this article, I add Veronika Tan's statement about love and life, as quoted from www.msn.com:
What is love? "If the easiest thing comes right away, give. If you expect trouble," "If expectations are not achieved, we will be disappointed again. Oops, we have to control our disappointment, so it's better than giving away,"
"I don't like to vent, I'm a quiet person. I don't like it when people talk 'nana-nini'. I don't want to interfere, or anything. If for example you are asked for advice or anything, let's find a solution. But if we talk here and there, I'm not, I'm not typical. Then if something goes wrong, if I really need it, for example to a friend, I'll say 'Is there a solution like this or not?
