2009

2009 will be year of politic in Indonesia. A serial of election from parliament to president will be held at the year.

This is the second direct presidential election in Indonesia. It seems that there will be no change in Indonesian political landscap. Old faces among presidential canditates are still dominant. No big issues of change will be endorsed.

As Wimar Witoelar, prominent political analyst, said, election in Indonesia is not a matter of issues or programs but patrons or figures.

Indonesian people, therefore, have to wait any longer to own substantial democracy, rather than prosedural democracy.
