For me, the biggest news of 2014 is “ Joko Widodo's win in the presidental election of Indonesia.” He is from Java, and nicknamed Jokowi. He was turned local politician from furniture exporter. As mayor of Surakarta in Central Java and governor in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, he was highly evaluated to have ability to enhance the transparency of government in order to eliminate the corruption. Jokowi is the president of the people faction that was not in Indonesia so far, so he is expected to accelerate the Innovation in Indonesia.
Jokowi is ran to Indonesia presidential election that was held on July 7, 2014. He mainly fought with Prabowo Subianto. Prabowo was once soldier and he has been strongly influenced by the Suharto. When East Timor independence, he led the covert military, massacre of citizens. On the contrary, Jokowi was born in a poor family, is a veritable people faction. Being apart from Indonesian traditional political leaders that are the elite and graduates, he attracted support.
Jokowi was cited realization of regional development and integrity of government as commitment. This year, I expect to his skills as a politician.
