Tomorrow,8th July will be another important day for Indonesian all over the world. It’s the presidential general election day. After Soeharto’s toppled down 11 years ago Indonesia has been transforming a lot and become the 3rd largest democratic country in the world ( after USA and India ). This will be the 3rd general election after 1999 and 2004 but practically the 2nd time Indonesian can choose directly their president and vice president.
There are 3 candidates for 2009 election ( Megawati – Prabowo,incumbent SBY – Boediono and JK – Wiranto ). All the formal campaigns already ended. Heated debates already passed. Black campaigns also already flied around. Many survey institutions ( or we can say it as companies ?? ) published their polling results already. Some said that Megawati will win,some said that SBY will win and some said that JK will win. Again this are all parts of democratic process.
The big question now is who will win tomorrow. As Indonesian myself I can only guess but I hope and pray whoever win then he / she will bring the betterment of the whole nations ( economic,security,social,less corruption and etc ). I also hope that whoever loss will accept it so the whole nation can move forward together again as 1 Nation.
So final closing mark from me is Happy Election Day tomorrow !!
