Text your say: Confused voters

Your comments on the latest survey that said that Prabowo, Megawati, Bakrie and Kalla were the most popular potential presidential candidates, although a whopping 60 percent of respondents said that they were undecided:

Confused? We are certainly not confused. We simply still do not know which potential candidate is not corrupt or will not allow corruption to prosper.

Whoever comes up with a squeaky clean and progressive record will be our hero.

Hopefully the right candidate with the right credentials will come forward on time.

Or the people need to take to the social media to publish the names of candidates that they think would be appropriate as the next leaders of Indonesia.

These potential candidates are still untrustworthy and the people of Indonesia seem uncertain whether this country will be better or worse under their leadership in the future. They should have offered their political plans by now in order to gain the people’s trust. Let’s hope for the best.

I am expecting Prabowo to win. Indonesia needs a president like [US president] Eisenhower who was brave enough to face any challenges, despite unpopular decisions. He would save the nation and keep Indonesia unified. If not Indonesia does not break into pieces, I think that Prabowo is the right person to be president.

Please not a businessman because a businessman only thinks about his/her business, while Megawati can only make use of her father’s popularity.

Jokowi vs Fauzi?

After failing to win an outright majority, Joko Widodo and Fauzi Bowo will likely square off in a runoff election after quick counts named the candidates the top finishers in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. What do you think?
