  3. We had no problem with "Dynasty Politics " , as long as our country's interest is fullfill. Not Foreign Country Interrest . And as long as Mr. Jokowi's Legacy continous, we ,Indonesian people had no problem with that 'Dynasty politic" . So our Nikel , palm oil , our gold , our industry , our infrasructur , our tech , can grow with local workforce .

  9. We knew the dark past of PRABOWO, but he's actually nationalism so we fogive him and hope he protect the nation from "intrueder" outside or inside INDONESIA.
    We will never regreat to choose him as the PRESIDENT of INDONESIA.
    "HUMAN CAN CHANGE MUCH BETTER THAN THE PAST", that's whay INDONESIAN ACTUALLY never HATE THE COUNTRY that colonize them in the past.
    We love, cares and learned each other as human being.

  13. We don’t care what ever your opinion about him , we know western countries don’t like him because Prabowo will continue Jokowi policy to protect our natural resources so you guys will see he will make Indonesia Great ✌️✌️

  16. Western media always says bad things about leaders they don't like, especially human rights issues, what about Israeli atrocities? Israeli leaders? who clearly colonized Palestine, and violated human rights? western media is always hypocritical!!

  17. Looks like this election result was already engineered some five years ago, designed by Jokowi the genius.

    When Jokowi was contesting for re-election he had to come up with a plan to assure that his

    re-election not be hindered by anyone and especially Prabowo (the opportunist). So Jokowi

    offered the job of defence minister to Prabowo and must have ensured him that the next election would

    be his with his son acting as a 'boarding pass' to the presidency. Prabowo is not fit to be president to a

    fragile economy like Indonesia. So this is a case of 'you scratch my back i scratch yours in return'. And if elected

    Prabowo would be a puppet president without a doubt just warming the president seat for Jokowi's son for the

    next presidential election in five years' time. LOL
