Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, M.M. or Ahok in 2012. Again and again, before the due time, he was offered by PDI-P party to be the candidate of President of Indonesia in 2014 with Jusuf Kalla as the candidate of vice president.

President who is loved by the people, When he was a kid, he ever had a bitter experience when his small house and also his father’s stall Cinderejo Lor in were evicted and became a centre of travel agent. Jokowi’s mother said that Jokowi was a quiet boy but he was also sociable. He always avoided any fight to keep the peace around him. His parents always taught him the meaning of sincerity and responsibility. His appearance is always simple. Not only that, when he was a kid, he used to walk to school while all of his friends rode bicycle. Simplicity is the way he lives
In 2005, Jokowi decided to be the candidate of Mayor in Solo through PDI-P party. Many people were doubtful on his competency to be a Mayor since they thought that Jokowi was a businessman in furniture and was not a politician at that time, even when he was announced that he won in the election. Then, people began to trust him when he made many progressive innovation and breakthrough. By his hands, Solo got many positive changes.
Jokowi’s journey is unpredictable and we really never know how people meet their faith. Jokowi is one of the examples. He might never dream of being the governor of the capital city of Indonesia, even being the President. His path is not easy, too. There were many rumours and issues during his candidacy, but he kept calm and strong to face anything that was going to attack him from every side
In 2014, Jokowi was elected to be the 7th President of Indonesia with Jusuf Kalla as the Vice President. Jokowi always tries to give his best to make Indonesia has better future. He is always spiritful with his popular jargon ‘Kerja Nyata’.
