These two guys should be the winner. They won an election with minimal budget against the incumbent Governor who happen to be backed by almost all the political parties. The incumbent used racism, religion and other method to try to discredit these two, but they still won by a wide margin. And now, 2 months into their term, they're cleaning up the notoriously corrupt province government of Jakarta using nuclear tactic:
(1) All the budget meeting are now taped and uploaded into youtube
(2) The governor bring camera where ever he goes and take pictures. So when the head department said it's done, he just showed them the picture
(3) The governor also showed up unannounced randomly to the different government installation to see if they're open and running properly
(4) The vice-governor answer his tweeter account about complaint, including one case where the local principle were charging parents outside the fee that was accepted. Within 1 week, that principle was fired and the school was put on notice by the governor office.
Jokowi himself have been mentioned as possible presidential candidate for 2014. And it's also cool that he's a fan of heavy metal and death metal. Was standing next to him last weekend during the Guns n Roses concert.
