Five reasons why Indonesia's presidential election matters

Indonesia is secular thanks to Sukarno. Compared to Tunku of Malaysia who choose racism, Sukarno chose the path of socialism. During Sukarno's time, Indonesia was more progressive than today.

Indonesia out side seems to be quite secular, but actually we are not inside...recent survey by US research like Pew and others reveal the true of my country. Even my Moslem people pray more than the people of Egypt and Iran based on the western institution research center. In Indonesia, even the biggest secular party which is PDI-P support the idea to lift the restriction of Hijab uniform use in our police women (out side Aceh/ because Aceh province uses Islamic Syariah), Soeharto who put the restriction before.Turkey on the other hand is still quite different, when Erdogan has so much opposition to allow state officer to use Hijab ( this small religious thing can be so complicated and big in Turkey politics)

(*ngupi punya om indos ^^)

If Sukarno follow the ways of Malaysia Tunku, Indonesia today may break apart or filled with racial riots.

To move a country forward, there is no use of extreme elements who want to see people dead for apostasy. The country should focus on science and technology instead of wasting time to debate whether Hijab will please Allah.

Ironically it was the USA who lead Indonesia to the stray path. USA allied with Islamist during the cold war to take down communist.

Sukarno has dream of Nussantara, which harm the sovereignity of Malaysia and Singapore, but if accomplish, he will be a great man. Taking down Sukarno in the short run benefit Singaporean Chinese, but cause a lot of harm to Indonesian Chinese. On the long run, the region will suffer due to emergence of Islamofascism.

In Germany, Jokowi-JK triumph over Prabowo. How's the election back home? @madokafc @Indos @MarveL @ReashotXigwin

I will update the real count in Germany after the KPU guys are done with the via-post ballots.
 
This is the most exciting election so far. Plenty of the usually 'golput' came forward and join the election for the first time today. The bad news apparently Prabowo can't accept their loses and only want to hear from their team quick count only.
