Daniel Mananta (born August 14, 1981 in Jakarta, Indonesia) is an Indonesian television host, VJ and actor. Sometimes known as VJ Daniel, is an Indonesian entertainer whose name emerged after winning the 2003 MTV Indonesia VJ Hunt. The first of two children of Donny Mananta and Anawaty Angkasa has now established himself as an entertainer as well as a young entrepreneur.
Daniel Mananta has 1 brother called 'William Mananta'.
Mananta also starred in many Indonesian soap opera including I Love U Boss. He played a major role in Indonesian thriller movie, "Rumah Dara" (2010).
Daniel led an amiable childhood in Jakarta, Indonesia. He attended Tarakanita IV in Pluit, North Jakarta, from kindergarten to the end of junior high school. Daniel moved to Perth, Australia to complete his high school education at Aquinas College. His childhood is rarely a topic of discussion, as he felt he was socially awkward until after high school.
During his school years in Perth, Daniel took up part-time employment at a (restaurant) chain called Nando’s, first as a waiter and eventually attaining a higher position equivalent to assistant manager. However, as high school final exams approached, he left the part-time job to focus on his education.
Following graduation from Aquinas College, Daniel pursued a double degree: Bachelor of Business Administration majoring in Finance, and International Business at Edith Cowan University. He graduated in 2002 at the age of 20.
While looking for an opportunity in Perth as a fresh graduate for 6 months, Daniel was involved in Network 21, a multi-level marketing system selling Amway products. As he was doing business presentations on almost a daily basis, Daniel began to enjoy public speaking. He also interned at Citibank Australia for 3 weeks.
