president bambang's decision to support probowo may have help to swing votes

Indonesians are very lucky to have Jokowi, a good man. We sinkies are going down with an idiot.

Please list down his strengths and weaknesses!!

Megawaahti not popular, so he was pushed to stand, as a front because he is popular as a governor. He makes changes, not just talk only. Easy to implement those things he did so far, but changes to stuff at national level is another matter, expect a lot of sabo from other parties.

Basuki “Ahok” Purnama Tjahaya - he is the Chinese deputy governor of Jakarta while the governor was Jokowi

In Indon politics, you are either from the Suharto/Golkar clan or the Sukarno clan. Joko belongs to the latter.

That is unfortunately, so true. We'll have to wait and see how Joko manages Indonesia. A huge and diverse country with a myriad mix of cultures, ethnic groups, religious factions, and heaps of resource wealth. It's not an easy task.

Cheers!

Thanks for the correction. Heard that he was Chinese from my associate in Jakarta. In any case, it is exceptional for a largely Malay and muslim population to favour someone who is ethnically different to hold such a high post. The electorate has to be pretty open-minded to overlook skin colour and base their selection on other criteria.

Cheers!

He is not Chinese. His assistant mayor of Jakarta is Chinese
