Life and career

Mohede was born on 6 February 1976 in Jakarta, His family is a combination of Dutch Moluccan and Sangirese descent. He is the cousin of the indonesian R&B artist Mike Mohede.[2][3]

He founded in 1996 with his friends musicians, Amara and Arie Widiawan, the trio of country pop, Lingua.[4] He followed a career in acting in TV series, as his wife after 1999, their proximity is such that they are apparuts together more than a dozen times on the screen.[5]

Being an expert in martial arts, he opened in 2007 in Jakarta, the first training center Muay-thai of Indonesia.[6] Since 2013, he was appointed president of the MPI (Muay-Thai Professional Indonesia).[7][8] In December 2014, Mohede with his wife opened a second training center in Bali, in order to continue promoting the sport across the country.[1]

Personal life

On 1 December 1999, Mohede married his childhood friend, the singer Amara who he was dating since 1991.[9] The couple are not in the same religious denomination, so since Indonesian law makes it difficult to do interfaith marriage since 1974,[10] the couple had a civil marriage to Hong Kong.[11]

They are the parents of three sons: Mahija Nathaniel Sambarana Aryantawira (born 8 June 2004), Janitra Nathaniel Sambawikrama (born on 8 September 2006) and Rajaswa Nathaniel Singkarawang Mohede (born on 17 October 2008).[12]
